I was raised in Christchurch of the South Island in New Zealand & continue to live here closely surrounded by my family. Having always been passionate about painting & drawing growing up, becoming a full time artist in 2006 was a dream come true.

As an emerging artist, I am humbled & grateful that my work is growing in popularity at such a rapid rate.

Influenced directly from our beautiful & unique scenery here in New Zealand, I paint powerful scenes of our country that cannot be expressed in words. Abundant in native plants/flowers & trees, the point of my art in general is to create paintings that give the viewer a sense of really being there. To create art that entices you to step into the painting. My focus is on pristine landscapes, free from man-made influences.

 

Preferred media: Painting (acrylic on boxed canvas)
