Above
&
Within
A series that invites viewers to witness from above how land and sea soften into one another and becomes a quiet study of our own changing boundaries.
Artist’s Vision
I am drawn to the world as it appears from above.
​
From this vantage point, coastlines soften, borders dissolve, patterns emerge that are invisible at ground level. What once felt vast becomes a composition of shape, tone and rhythm. Looking down evokes curiosity, a quiet wonder about how forms connect and where they disappear.
My paintings begin with this fascination. Aerial landscapes captured through my own viewcatcher.
​
By stepping back, we are offered space to think and these abstract aerial views become a mirror for our own inner terrain.
Featured Artwork
The Channel Country spreads like a living network, countless channels threading through the earth, carrying water to places that may wait years for its return. Each channel is a carved memory of water and time and every course gives quiet worth to the living whole. In their braided diversity we learn to respect the land that gives us life.

The Hutt Lagoon appears like a bubblegum dream in the dry land when nature strikes in perfect alignment. Its hue shifts with the sun, salt and wind revealing a quiet truth that beauty is fragile and that even the most vibrant forms are vulnerable to change. This aerial abstraction reflects a deeper truth that we need to look beyond the beauty in the moment, acknowledge vulnerability and honour nature and self in their fullness
Artwork is framed with oak wood floating frame.

The Joseph Bonaparte Gulf moves with a quiet rhythm. From above, its forms seem fluid, dissolving boundaries between land and sea. From within, it speaks of letting go. The kind that softens resistance and lets change take its course. It is reflective of the peace that comes when we allow ourselves to surrender to change.
