Hi! I’m an Aussie artist, and I hope you enjoy my RedBubble art and t-shirts.

Interests and Inspirations:
The Lord Jesus Christ, Spirituality, animals, vegetarianism, environmentalism, books, art, writing, poetry, and science. I am interested in all things Australian. I’m originally from South Gippsland, and have also lived in other parts of Victoria.

My art tends to explore the themes of animals, rurality and Australian life. I especially love drawing horses, dinosaurs and cats. I enjoy photographing birds, rural Australia and everyday life. I read way too many books, too.

I have a heavy metal / Goth background and while I don’t dress in just black anymore (though it is also a Melbourne thing) I have a soft spot for vampyre stories, hard rocking guitars and all things fantasy / science fiction.

I’m a committed member of my local Christian community where I co-lead a small group and am involved in the volunteer leadership of the church. I am also married with children, and a university student. As you can probably tell, I’ve got a lot happening!

I am also including some of my husband’s photography on my RedBubble site and Bubblesite. I hope you enjoy it!

A genuine word of thanks to all the encouraging RedBubblers who take time out to leave thoughtful comments on my art, tees and photos. And many thanks to the groups who have featured my works in their groups.

Ice Cream: Memories Of The Latrobe Valley

Brisk evening turns to chilled night, and the brilliant hues of sunset are lost in ink black. The haze and clouds from the power stations mingle with the heavy fog, and settle close to the ground. Ste…
