I was incredibly lucky to grow up in the magical Blue Mountains of NSW. Surrounded by lush greenery, my childhood was spent playing in hidden caves, catching yabbies and tadpoles in the creeks, and listening to our voices echo as we "cooeed" across the cliffs. My happiest memories are of camping and bushwalking through the mountains, discovering the beauty of its many waterfalls. This special place nurtured my love for nature, and its beauty continues to inspire my paintings. This section features a range of nature paintings inspired by the greener aspects of the natural world.
In art I love to try and capture the true beauty of nature. The many gentle waterfalls hidden in our vast mountains & bushlands always bring me to a place of peace. This waterfall oil painting shows nature at it's finest and this is exactly what we must protect.

I had wanted to paint this scene for a few years, knowing I wanted to paint it differently to my usual style but never knowing just how. Finally I gave it a go, deciding to try using only pallet knives & I just love it! The textures are beautifully rendered, and the colors simply explode.

Inspired by a friends photo, this scene reminded me of the many evenings I would wander home from an afternoon playing with friends and a time where all the children wandered the mountains until the light began to fade.
