Location: Australia
My art is about Home‚ Place‚ Womens issues and Environment. I try to harmoniously merge message and aesthetics in my work. This is important as art can bring about social interaction and bring change. I use mixed media‚ acrylic paint and found materials which I recycle in my art.

This is an Intuitive painting. While starting this work I was thinking about nature, our nature and our environment and how we are connected to it. I started using free flow acrylic paint layering warm and cool colors and slowly let myself guide by the emerging composition.
