Profile
I was born in July 1987 in Armadale, Western Australia. At a young age I moved with my family to New South Wales. It was there that I began my fascination with art.
From childhood, I developed a talent in the artistic field. Ever since my infamous finger-painting skills in the early 1990’s. This led me to believe that I could fulfil a promising career in the art world.
I concentrate on using watercolour, pastels (soft, oil and water-soluble), mixed media or special media, and acrylic as my preferred media.
In 2006 I received the People’s Choice Award for the University of Western Sydney’s START – Student Art competition for my piece Colour Attack
Currently I am working as an artist in the Hawkesbury area of Sydney, New South Wales. I am also completing a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) course.
I am now just getting into photography, and I would love to hear your opinions about my self-portraits :)
