Thank you for visiting my website. I am based in Christchurch and have my studio at Art Box Gallery where I've been painting professionally since 2004. My style is 'super-realism' with bold colours and precise definition. My chosen subjects include New Zealand images from places that have touched my heart to still life studies that leap out from the canvas.
“A favourite brush, an old shirt, buttery tubes of paint and some time. My heaven on earth.”
In 2014 I was very privileged to be given the Premier Award from the Ashburton Society of Arts and I have also received first place for acrylics at St Andrews Artarama in Christchurch. My work was selected for the New Zealand Artists calendar in 2015. In 2021 I was awarded the Forest and Bird Flora and Fauna Award at ASA. I am represented at these galleries:
