Artist Statement
I'm a New Zealand-born painter who lives and works in Kerikeri, Northland. I'm recognized for my large abstract and abstract landscape pieces. Acrylic paint, pastel, and oil stick on canvas are the primary mediums of my work. Loose linear markings and washes are combined with delicate and bold painterly marks taken from palettes or directly from the tube.
A variety of tools including brushes, scrapers, rags, and my hands are utilised in a wide range of sizes. Mark making is complete when the canvas is struck with fast intent and takes on a life of its own. The idea is to produce a surface of marks, colour, texture and forms that result in a seamless undetectable balancing act.
About The Artist

She has worked in commercial interiors in Auckland and London after earning a Bachelor of Design. While working, she pursued her passion of becoming a professional artist by taking fine art courses with mentoring.
She currently paints full-time and is most recognised for her large abstract paintings and abstract landscapes, which she does primarily with acrylics on canvas. She has been a finalist for the Walker and Hall Waiheke Art Award and the Estuary Art and Ecology Award
