As the youngest in a family of European artisans, I learned to appreciate my father’s fine craftsmanship & the creativity of my siblings, however my own imagination was nurtured amongst the forests, creeks & canyons of Lynn Valley in the 60’s – 70’s where I was set free to roam.
The magnificent creativity of Nature, derived by natural forces or human hand, continues to be a source of awe, however any representation of this excitement on canvas came late & as something of a surprise.
I have known many wonderful artists over the years & continue to be grateful for their teachings, however my first tutors were the natural world & my family. From them & others I have learned to see in unexpected ways, to learn constantly, & to be unafraid in the midst of much greater talent than I.
Our venue features a collaboration of local artists, each sharing their own unique style, medium & subject matter – an eclectic display of Sunshine Coast creativity. Our paintings reflect a sharing of diverse skills, styles & energy.
Showing at the Sunshine Coast Golf and Country Club in Roberts Creek with 5 other painters, plus jeweler Pamela Roberts and ceramic artist Marilyn Downing.
