One question keeps coming up: what’s next?
I’m delighted to share that my work has been selected as a finalist in the Hunters Hill Art Prize 2026. It’s an honour to be part of this exhibition alongside a strong group of selected artists, all coming together in the beautiful Hunters Hill Town Hall.
The work I’ve entered, Soft Country — Eucalyptus Socialis, continues my exploration of Australian native trees — their presence, individuality, and the subtle complexity of their colour and form.

Over the past months, I’ve been honoured to be selected as a finalist in several exhibitions across Australia. Being part of the evolving art mosaic in Sydney and beyond is something I truly value. In October, my work was shown at Gallery 11:11, followed by Bridges to Belonging in Adelaide in November — an exhibition that explored connection, identity, and shared stories. December brought another exciting milestone: I was delighted to be a finalist in the 40 by 40 Exhibition at Newcastle Art Space 🎉 This exhibition celebrates over forty years of a vibrant creative community and showcases artworks measuring 40 × 40 cm — a reminder that great art can come in small packages. The exhibition ran in early December 2025. Also in December, I was selected to participate in The Summer Prize Exhibition at Northern Beaches Gallery, an exhibition absolutely worth visiting with many outstanding works on display. Among them was my painting Jingymia mallee — Eucalyptus synandra, shown in late December. Another memorable moment from this period was seeing one of my artworks sold at auction directly from the concert stage — a powerful reminder of how art can live and breathe beyond gallery walls. Currently, my work Nocturne for Large-Fruited Mallee is on display at:
Spring Gives Us Hope was a fundraising exhibition by True Blue & a Little Bit of Yellow, held at Mona Vale Pop-Up Gallery on Sydney’s Northern Beaches from 17–28 October 2022. Unstoppable in our commitment, we continued to paint, exhibit, and raise funds to support those in need, using art as a way to respond, connect, and help. The exhibition was filled with colour and optimism — flowers, birds, and vibrant palettes came together to reflect renewal, resilience, and the emotional lift that spring brings. It was an uplifting visual response during a difficult time, offering light and hope through art. We are deeply grateful to everyone who visited, supported the exhibition, and purchased artworks. Your generosity made a real difference. Knowing that, once again, art could help support the people of Ukraine is something that continues to warm our hearts.
