Location: Australia
Painted & drew since childhood, wide range of subjects. Won art prizes when at school, became Biology/science/maths teache then special ed, painted & entered art shows throughout as a hobby, won some awards. Have taught art & studied botanical art with Jenny Phillips, have used this technique applied to animals. Environmental activist so the plight of the natural world and human suffering caused by overpopulation & disrespect for animals is my greatest concern
Variety of subjects which I consider relevant to the causes and effects of environmental damage to what remains of the natural world and the self destructive effects on people
Koalas have suffered high fatalities & habitat destruction
Another iconic Australian animal which is suffering terribly due to habitat destruction & the greedy cruelty of some humans
These delightful marsupials are frequent victims of road trauma, fires & killing by thoughtless people
Watercolour & ink imaginary landscape done when upset by shocking fire damage in previously unburnt Tasmanian wilderness
These exquisite birds are found in undergrowth & gardens & uplift the spirits of people in isolation
