A Look Back at Our Winter Workshops 🌿🎨
We had some very enjoyable workshops in the studio over winter!
With small groups, I can give each person the attention they need, demonstrate the techniques closely, and help everyone achieve a successful result.
I’m especially proud of those who had never picked up a paintbrush before. Seeing them start with no experience and finish with a painting they are genuinely proud of is one of the most rewarding parts of teaching.
We experimented with different techniques, materials and approaches to painting — and, of course, had a lot of fun along the way.
Here are some of the results from our winter workshops. I think everyone did a fantastic job!
If you would like to join me for a workshop, I have more sessions coming up, with new techniques and subjects to explore.

Art & Style magazine has featured a page about my exhibition, Echoes of the Bush. I can’t express how grateful I am to everyone who has supported my journey. Thank you, Wayne. Thank you, Northern Beaches Gallery. Thank you to the Art & Style magazine team. Thank you, Danielle and Doug. The magazine is filled with incredible artists and inspiring stories, so it’s a true honour to be included among them. Thank you all for believing in my art.
Photography is another way I tell stories. Through the lens, I focus on capturing the essence of a moment — and quite often, that essence is found in something simple and authentic, like a genuine smile. For me, photography is not about staging perfection, but about conveying mood, feeling, and the small details that make each moment distinct. My approach is grounded in clarity and intention: clean, uncluttered compositions mood-driven visual storytelling thoughtful styling, particularly in portrait work I enjoy creating portraits that feel natural, balanced, and well composed, as well as documenting events in a way that is honest, engaging, and true to the atmosphere of the moment. Whether photographing a performance, an event, or an individual, my focus remains consistent — imagery that communicates clearly and carries emotional weight.
