ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
I’m a new painter. I began to paint two and a half years ago and immediately knew I had found a new avenue of creativity and communication. Having spent all my adult life nurturing my career as a professional drummer and teacher it came as a welcome relief to find that a gift of paper and pencils from my partner Amanda could be put straight to good use picking up a childhood hobby. Playing and teaching the drums had always occupied my creative life but I felt it was time for a change.
My experience with showing is limited so far to one group exhibition at the Birregurra art show in October 2003 and having some of my work for sale at Little Malop Street Fine Art gallery in Geelong.
Shortly after reacquainting myself with graphite I moved on to my first set of acrylic paints and a completely new and exciting world opened up to me and now I’m able to share my images of an Australian story with friends and family and even a commercial gallery. I fully intend to develop my visual language as far as I can and I want to reach out to as many people as possible.
