A little ABOUT me...

I am a contemporary abstract painter who lives and works in Melbourne.
I’ve been nurturing my creativity ever since I can remember in all sorts of ways, whether through visual art, photography, crafts, through to my current profession as a graphic surface/textile designer.

I graduated from Queensland School of Print and Graphic Arts in 2001 (Australia),
and in 2004, transitioned from logo/publication work to designing artistic graphics for products.

The traveller in me has allowed me to carry my creative skills worldwide,
with past bases in the UK, North America, Latin America and now Melbourne, Australia.
Where ever you are, my creativity can reach you.

I enjoy working and collaborating. I love the whole process of developing an idea to create an artwork which makes everyone happy and proud to publicly display. For me, creating art is like taking a voyage. Whether short or long, it’s a unique journey which allows me to personally transfer any artistic concept into physical reality.
