Artist

I have always been creative from a very young age, winning multiple art awards and painting with artists in their studios outside of school hours. Experiencing much heartache after the loss of my father and brother during school years, I was unsure where my place was in the world with my creative abilities until I received early acceptance into two University Degrees. Finding my direction I followed my creative heart which led me through the doors of Art Design, working for some of the largest firms for Australasia. I never felt complete until I began to raise my own little family. Unfortunately my husband then passed and I was left to question my place in this world once again. At my lowest of lows my daughter encouraged me to paint, "This is what we do" she said, as she placed a paint brush in my hand. So I got up and if it was a flick of a rag, a throw of paint or a stroke of a brush; I was there in the thick of an enchanting meditative state that I get ever so lost in. I sometimes set my alarm to remember to wash up and call it a day. It is an amazing feeling knowing I'm creating something that will bring good energy, warmth, healing or a smile to a room. I see the vision so clearly from the beginning. That old cliche that art heals the world is not incorrect. Art does move the world and in-turn does heal it. It has healed me and the feeling of joy overcomes me simply knowing I might do this for others with each piece that leaves my studio.
