Hand-printing onto paper and capturing the calming and quirky moments from nature drive my art. Working with relief, contact and intaglio printmaking, I find peace and presence in the natural environment, away from the haste of modern life.

The natural environment is my primary inspiration. Whether it’s my photos of captured moments or working with organic materials, being in nature’s spaces—my garden, a country drive, or a bush walk—calms and grounds me, fueling my creativity.

I love sharing my craft by teaching various printmaking techniques. I run small group workshops from my studio in North Maleny. Teaching and being a professional artist were childhood dreams, and in January 2018, I launched my printmaking workshops, living my passions.

Printmaking can be simpler than it seems and a great complement to painting and drawing. New and modern materials have made many areas of printmaking accessible from non-professional and home studio environment. I love to introduce students to this creative medium, hoping they leave with new skills and confidence to continue printing.
