​

I’m an artist based in Whangārei, Aotearoa.

​

My work is inspired by the connections between people, place, memory and Te Taiao, and the ways these shape our sense of identity and belonging.

​

Working across abstract landscape and figurative painting, I draw on human gesture and expression and the rhythms and forms of the natural world.

​

My work moves between the recognisable and the abstract, exploring not only what is seen, but what is felt and remembered.

​

Using flowing forms, layered mark-making and an earthy, intuitive palette, my paintings invite reflection and personal interpretation.

​

With a background in spatial design, my practice is grounded in balance, structure and flow.
