Sketching near Lake Pukaki
I am an Aotearoa-based contemporary artist and illustrator, working in oil, watercolour and mixed media.
After graduating with a Bachelor of Art and Design (Hons) from AUT I worked for a number of years as a commercial artist, before returning to traditional media in 2024.
I am inspired by the often unexpected colours of nature and my works are developed based on an extensive library of reference photos I have taken in New Zealand and overseas. I am less concerned with realism than with atmosphere, and many of my paintings begin as sketches on location before being developed further in my studio.
