I took up drawing and then painting classes, some twenty years ago, as a recreation to balance my work as a Primary teacher, it worked! After various classes with the CAE, Diamond Valley Art Society and RMIT I discovered a brilliant artist/teacher Nell Frysteen. From Nell I have learned technique, the brilliance of colour and the intricacies of light. In addition I have formed wonderful friendships within the class and look forward to our weekly painting nights.

I have been exhibiting in group exhibitionsfor the last10 years, most recently with the Nell Street Painters and find that the challenge of exhibiting and the excitement of selling a painting provide me with motivation – but I still paint foremost for my personal pleasure and relaxation. I paint a wide variety of subject matter and am happy to take on commissions.
