I have been drawing all my life.Over the last 30 years I had been busy running a professonal art business in hand painted textiles, fine art and craft works , from my Tropical garden setting studio in sunny Gold Coast Hinterland—not far from the world famous fabulous beaches. These days because unforeseen changes I have had to retire, mainly to paint for my own fun.I have always been passionate about photographing [box brownie] and now with digital cameras editing with computers and computors it has become a real joy and passion to indulge in as well.
I have had many years attending regular life drawing /painting classes workshops with some of the best Art teachers in Australia.Also I have been fortunate in winning some wonderful prizes, in paintings and Photographs
I paint in all mediums,Oil, Acrylic, Pastels. Inks,Watercolours.always on quality supports I have a framer who uses the best and most tasteful frames. If anybody is interested in the original art works please contact me through bubble message and I will get back to you.
