New Zealand Artist, Teacher & Photographer
Kia Ora,
Welcome to my website. I am an Artist, Photographer and Teacher. I live in Halcombe, and I produce work incorporating natural elements and themes. Having also lived in Hawkes Bay, Tasman Bays, and Taranaki, I am inspired by and enjoy capturing the varied landscapes of these places and New Zealand.
Oil painting is my main fine art medium, but I also work with acrylics, watercolour, and drawing mediums. I produce limited edition prints of selected works, create stunning portraiture and landscape paintings, and am available for commission.

This year I will be opening my studio/ cabin to the public for the Manawatu Art Trail. Come and have a look at the space I use and find out about my process. Be aware that parking is limited and the space is small. The Rusty Radiator Cafe is around the corner, so enjoy Halcombe's hospitality while you're here. I will also have artwork displayed in the Square Edge Art Gallery trail Mix exhibition.

Teaching
I am currently teaching the 'Budding Artists and Emerging Creatives' at the Feilding and Districts Art Society . These classes aim to provide an opportunity for local children to have access to and explore art at a low cost.
