2025
Med. Oil paint on stretched canvas
Size 50cm × 40cm × 4 cm.
Ready to hang with D-rings and wire.
Description
This minimal abstract oil painting embodies a profound journey of healing, cultivated over 2 years. Its rich, deep peach rose colors radiate a sense of warmth and tranquility, reflecting a passage of time marked by both loss and recovery. Ultimately, this painting now occupies its own serene space, standing strong and peaceful, inviting contemplation and connection in its quietness.
The historical roots of minimal abstraction inspire this work, as it conveys a silent yet powerful narrative through the interplay of around 33 thick layers of oil paint. Techniques of sgraffito reveal a textured landscape where colors are scratched into and rebuilt, each layer telling its own story while contributing to a greater whole.

Med. Acrylic paints, Rust paint, iron, salt, sealer on deep sided cotton canvas. The artwork has finished sides if you like that look and doesn't require framing.
Size 50cm (W) x 70cm (H) x 4cm (D)
Description
In this piece, I've channeled my passion for the raw and deep textures of life. The acrylic medium and rust pigments allowed me to layer tones, creating a rich, earthy canvas that pulses with energy. It's an abstraction of emotions, where each stroke and color selection is a play between chaos and order. It ignites a sense of intrigue and complexity, inviting viewers to explore their own depths.

Description
My grandfather painted The Nut in Tasmania in the 1930s. That painting, along with many others, was lost in a house fire and I never saw it. For much of my life, I was unaware of the artistic lineage shared between my grandfather, great grandfather and myself. That absence of images, knowledge, and connection has remained present.
In 2024, I travelled to Tasmania and visited places my ancestors would have known. The journey became a way of standing within the same landscapes and allowing time and memory to surface.
At the summit of Kunanyi / Mt Wellington, the rock formations felt ancient and insistent, carrying layered geological and cultural histories. On the brink of snowfall, I wanted to remain in the silence of the rocks.
Hobart from (Kunanyi) Mt Wellington. 1952–2024 brings together ancestral movement through the landscape, the volcanic formations , mid-century tourism and my own encounter. Vintage postcards from 1952 introduce a tourist's gaze alongside the permanence of the rocks. The top layers of paint carries the ancient rock formations and patterns referencing the beginnings of ice and snow... a fleeting trace of my presence.
The work allows multiple histories to coexist without hierarchy.

2020
Med. Acrylic paint, on cotton canvas. (Unstretched) Stretching & Framing available through your local art framers.
90cm (W) x 100 (H) x 1cm (D)
Description
This painting, with blues and sepia tones, transports me back to my first watercolor I did in country Australia, during the late 70s, where I explored light and shade. The marks evoke a sense of ancient history, feeling as though they've existed for centuries. It was only later that I recognized the profound connection to Australian landscapes and tribal art, and the echoes of the ancient frescoes I'd admired in Spain, Italy, and Venice.
Connections
Artwork links to the soak-stain technique of American artist Helen Frankenthaler (1928–2011) It’s a pure abstraction painting, which means, it’s about the paint, colour, line, form. I also, wanted to see if the paint laid on the surface of the canvas, or sink into canvas material? Problem solving...I wanted to apply layers of marks that were loose and free and just let go, and not control them. Connections to the Surrealists way of working , automatic making & thinking.

2016
Med. Acrylic and shellac on deep-sided cotton canvas
92 × 122 × 5 cm
Professionally framed (Contemporary washed veneer wooden frame) Ready to hang with D-rings and wire.
Description
Wallmatter 3 is part of an ongoing body of work exploring surfaces — where time, touch, and trace quietly gather.
Built through layered applications of acrylic and shellac, the work holds a restrained physical presence. Subtle shifts in texture and tone emerge gradually, changing with light and distance, inviting slower looking rather than immediate resolution.
Neither purely image nor object, the work is minimal, silent and sits between wall, fragment, and memory — grounded, tactile, and quietly assertive.

2003
I am currently offering up some of my older important artworks. Some have never been shown, while others have been in exhibitions in Australia and overseas and may have writing and labels for provenance history on the back.
Description
A large painting built through accumulated layers of oil paint, cloth and tile grout, Redfire — A Day developed slowly over seven months. Red dominates the surface, emerging through layers of colour, texture and abrasion, while fragments of earlier paintings remain concealed beneath the final surface.
The words A Day emerged within the painting as the layers developed, becoming both a mark and a point of tension within the work. What is visible is only the outer surface. Beneath it are earlier states of the painting—layers covered, altered and transformed. The surface becomes a kind of casing, holding what came before while allowing only traces to remain visible.
The painting is concerned with accumulation, concealment and transformation: what is buried, what survives, and what continues to exist beneath the surface.
Connections
The first layer of Redfire — A Day was begun before the 2003 invasion of Iraq and evolved alongside the unfolding events. Cloth, oil paint, predominantly red, and tile grout were worked into the canvas to build a textured surface.
After several days, a large A emerged. Over the following weeks it developed into A Day, while layers of colour and material were added, covered, scraped back and transformed.
The painting took seven months to resolve. The process became the work itself—each layer concealing traces of what came before. The events unfolding in Iraq became part of the atmosphere of the painting, holding a range of emotions within its many layers without directly depicting them.
An extraordinary coincidence occurred when the invasion began: the first US military action was referred to as “A Day”—words that had appeared on the canvas weeks earlier.
What remains on the surface is therefore only one layer of a much larger history. Beneath it are many earlier states of the painting, concealed within the final surface.
A little update from the studio
I’ve been doing something a little different in the studio lately.
Instead of making new work, I’ve been going backwards.
I’ve been working on my archive — going through decades of paintings, drawings, collage, sculpture, textiles, ceramics, photographs, video, writing, poetry… and quite a lot of things I had completely forgotten about.
