About Me

 I have been painting for several years, after having spent the bulk of my artistic life in the Ballet world!  This has been a huge change but one that I am loving.  My first love is painting with oils, and for the moment, landscape painting.  I have had the good fortune to be taught by D'hange Yammanee - a master in teaching tones, atmospheric/tonal distance and composition.  There is still much I have to learn from him. 

In January 2014 unfortunately my husband and I lost our house in a huge bushfire in the hills in Perth - and along with it all my paintings and art equipment!  For several years after this I was "regrouping" and quite frankly, rebuilding!  Now I have a lovely large  upstairs studio and have gathered together almost all that I previously lost.  Also my style is developing further along impressionistic lines and I am enjoying painting more than ever.

I enter my art regularly in local exhibitions and have sold many through these outlets.  Also I have undertaken quite a few commissions - both large and small.    There is so much to learn still.  It is more than one lifetime's work I think!!
