EXPRESSIONS OF LOVE BETWEEN
AUSTRALIA AND INDONESIA

I have just completed an Advanced Diploma of Fine Arts with a major in Painting at Lismore TAFE. My interest at present lies in patterns created both in the natural world and in designs within tribal and ethnic art.

I have been inspired by the creative displays of wares to be found in the streets and markets of Indochina and Indonesia, which I have visited over the past few years. Using photographs taken on these trips as a starting point, as well as making use of digital manipulation, I have found an inexhaustible supply of subject matter for my paintings.
