Welcome
I am an artist living in the beautiful Tasman region at the top of the South Island of New Zealand. I paint intuitive, abstract landscapes and seascapes in acrylics, oil and mixed media.
When I feel like a change from painting I create contemporary textile art using weaving, stitching and other techniques. I also collect plastic rubbish from my local beach at Ruby Bay during my frequent walks there with my dog. I use some of what I pick up in my art practice to help highlight the issues which beach plastic poses to our marine environment. These can be viewed under 3-D Artworks.

Studio Opening Times
If you would like to visit my studio in Mahana this summer, please contact me. I'm usually around in the weekends, but I do like a bit of warning to get out of the garden.
I have lots of work available that isn't on my website, which reminds me I need to update it, but I'd rather be creating than doing admin!
