portrait, pet and wildlife artist
Welcome
As the title suggests, my artwork has a distinctive Australian flavour.
I have a deep interest in Australian fauna, as evidenced in my selection of Aussie wildlife.
Both Pet and People portraits are a special favourite of mine.
I love the depth of character that charcoal can create, particularly in people.
Shoe polish makes for an interesting medium, leaving the finished work with a nostalgic feel.
Pastel, pencil, pen and a combination of
any of the above allows me the diversity to create an image in any style
necessary.
Chook wire sculpting was an experiment that works particularly well with Aussie fauna. The koala is by far the most popular request for sculpting in this medium.
