    Knowing When To Stop

    By |May 27th, 2024|Creative|0 Comments

    As artists, we understand the temptation to keep adding brushstrokes, refining details and striving to create our BEST WORK YET. But sometimes less really is MORE. Some of my favourite pieces are the ones where I’ve worked quickly and freely, completing in just one session. I don’t assign monetary value to a work based on […]

      The Challenges of Mural Painting

      By |April 20th, 2024|Creative, Murals|0 Comments

      Ever wondered what goes into painting a mural? I was asked about the challenges by the @city_of_joondalup for the Urban Rhythms project.

      1. The Perth weather can be challenging when working outdoors, from 40°C one day to raining the next! 🔥 Sometimes the wind can whip the paint off the brush before it gets to the […]

        Why Making is Better Than Possessing

        By |March 16th, 2024|Creative|0 Comments

        I’ve come to appreciate the deep satisfaction that comes from the act of creation. In a world consumed by consumerism and the importance of material possessions, the process of making something with your own hands holds far greater value than simply acquiring things.

        There’s a deep sense of fulfilment that accompanies the act of creation. The […]

          Creative Savage

          By |June 28th, 2022|Creative, Design|0 Comments

          The latest creation in a long line of clothing designs. Residing in the depths of my sketch book for some time, the design finally found the light of day. Now it’s my new fave.

          A few years ago I decided I simply MUST have a green windcheater and couldn’t find one anywhere in Perth. This year […]

            Finding balance

            By |February 5th, 2020|Creative|0 Comments

            Keeping myself open to new experiences, new environments, new people and interacting with new objects brings with it a steady stream of new thoughts, new feelings and new ideas. It is these experiences which inform my art practice and help shape my creative output.

            I’ve come to realise that my expectation to produce creative output on […]

              Connecting in our creative community

              By |October 6th, 2019|Creative|0 Comments

              Last week I attended the openings of two art exhibitions in which I am an exhibitor. Containing a diversity of work in a variety of mediums, both shows were thoughtfully curated by Sandra Murray.

              I was proud to be selected as one of 52 finalists in the Perth Royal Art Prize from 253 entries. It’s the […]

                Kandinsky, Koons and Kubrick

                By |September 10th, 2019|Creative|0 Comments

                I’m reminded of how important it is to take time out from the humdrum of everyday life and recharge. I was fortunate enough to enjoy a whirlwind holiday in Europe recently. As an artist, taking in new cities, galleries and cultures is invaluable in terms of growth and inspiration. My trek took me to Zurich, […]

                    Submissions, competitions and awards

                    By |July 20th, 2015|Creative|0 Comments

                    The last few weeks have been spent mainly running the new artisan collective, UnchARTed on Beaufort St Mt Lawley. It’s great to finally have a permanent place to exhibit my work and share space with many other Perth creatives. I was unsuccessful in my first public mural submission (not surprisingly as there are many other […]

                      Live painting of a kangaroo in the city!

                      By |June 21st, 2015|Creative, Design|0 Comments

                      Monday and Tuesday I painted a roo with my original abstract design at Central Park in the city. The fun KangaART project will see the completed 20 life-size fibreglass kangaroo statues (painted by different artists) displayed in a permanent exhibition adjacent to a newly built Miami Bakehouse on the Forrest Highway. What an awesome public […]
