I’ve found it quite a challenge to capture the way that the last citron flash of light at sunset in the desert can be a metaphor for aspects of painting about painting. It correlates to the flash of inspiration as it transitions into paint placed onto a two dimensional surface. The eye of inspiration closes or is obscured as the other eye opens to the process.
I have been producing oil paintings, mixed media, prints (etching), digital prints and drawings for many years travelling to the Australian outback and overseas for inspiration and further education.
My formal education consists of a PhD in painting and a BA in printmaking and my artwork is represented in public and private collections.
My purpose and ongoing challenge is to create a gender-balanced and environment-focused iconography within the Western canon of European oil painting.
These themes find expression within imagery about time, memory and identity as well as in geomorphology of evolutionary and environmental significance.
