My inspiration for painting and drawing comes from the beauty of the landscape, whether it be the wide brown western plains of my childhood and youth, or the hills and valleys of the central west where I’ve lived for the last 44 years, or the very different landscapes of France, Italy, Portugal, Scotland and Ireland. I love the magic of watercolour as my medium for translating the light and colour of those landscapes onto paper. I have had several solo Art Shows and have been part of many Group Shows. I exhibit annually at Portland, Taralga, Blackheath and the Sydney Royal Easter Show. I’m involved with the annual Daffodils at Rydal Art Show and was a founding member of the Lithgow Arts Trail.
