Art

Painting, sculpture, illustration and mixed media projects.

My painting, sculpture and mixed media works have been exhibited at venues including Hazelhurst Regional Gallery and Arts Centre, Space 44 Cronulla, and The Old Sign Shop, Sydney. I’m particularly interested in the spaces where writing and painting intersect, using art-making as a method of examining themes in written work.
