About

I am an Australian visual artist and landscape painter specialising in watercolours on paper. In mid-2024, I moved from Melbourne to Jyväskylä in central Finland, where I create from my home studio and the surrounding forests.    

Through my artworks, I explore the tranquil experience of being in the landscape and the small moments and memories found within. Often sprawling across large sheets of paper, I love to explore my passion and connection to the natural world through detailed marks, layers, and washes of paint. An essential part of my process includes observing, walking, and creating on location.

My passions were instilled from a young age, having grown up in a creative family on a small horse property on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia. I graduated with a Bachelor of Design in 2014 and have since exhibited widely in group and solo exhibitions, including the Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery (AUS). I have been a finalist in several prizes, including the Australian Watercolour Muster Biennale 2023, Paddington Prize 2022, and Southern Buoy Landscape Prize 2020 & 2019. My artwork is in private international collections and public collections at the Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery (AUS) and Southern Midlands Collection (AUS). Further opportunities include undertaking artist residencies in Australia, Iceland, and Finland, and leading various projects from murals and curation to teaching workshops and school programs. I am a current member of the Finnish Painters Union and the Jyväskylä Artist Association.
