I’ve loved drawing for as long as I can remember. Travelling around the UK as a child, I was always intrigued by the little villages, rolling hills, grand castles, historic buildings and old steam trains.

Family road trips through Europe added even more to the mix. I still remember the incredible mountain views in France and the magic of Venice—the buildings, the atmosphere and the street artists sketching portraits for tourists. It was all fascinating.

That early interest in art led me to study a Bachelor of Arts (Design), which kicked off a rewarding career in the industry.

Travel has always been a major source of inspiration for me, especially visits to galleries and museums. Photography is another creative outlet that keeps me inspired. These days, it is often a bushwalk with my children in the Perth Hills that sparks an idea.

This website features some of my favourite photographs, including a recent art series exploring patterns inspired by Western Australia’s unique flora.
