Open Studios in the Dandenong Ranges
I visited the Dandenong Ranges Open Studios event and visited some lovely studios. It was an inspiring weekend set among some picturesque scenery.
Japanese Rice Paddy Art
I love the traditional culture and natural beauty of Japan's countryside, especially the rice terraces in Motoyama Town, Kochi Prefecture. Having lived in rural Japan, I've had the privilege of immersing myself in the stunning scenery of Japanese rice paddies.
Living in Niseko Japan
We moved to Niseko, Hokkaido, where I found awe-inspiring snow scenes. The village, nestled amidst picturesque mountains, receives a staggering amount of snowfall and offers stunning views of Mt Yotei, serving inspiration for my artwork.
Snow Gum Trees
As the weather gets colder towards winter you will notice the snow gum trees on the Baw Baw Plateau changing colours. Inspired by the beautiful and changing colours of these trees, I created this mixed media lino cut print.
Springtime Blooms
Inspired by the flowers out in the garden I created this new lino print set, printed on delicate Japanese washi.
The Twisted Tanjil
The views of Mt Baw Baw on a clear day in winter are quite amazing from down in the Tanjil Valley and wider Gippsland area. Inspired by this I created this lino print which I have entered into the Tanjil Valley Art Show this year.
Snow Gums in the Snow
The artwork is inspired by Victoria's alpine region, specifically the snow gums found across the Baw Baw Plateau.
