My practice is flexible in its forms from painting, ceramics and tattoo design to resin, writing and digital animation.
I find I am guided more by curiosity than convention.

My work often references art, film and tv while exploring themes of culture, nature’s patterns and the process of love and loss.
I have a particular tenderness for the wild, the fragile and the deeply felt.
I create pieces that spark joy by honouring loved ones or lifes experiences and revel when I can find balance in art despite my “too much” genes.

As I was raised split between the Gold Coast’s glitzy beaches and a sleepy rural town I try to imbue my work in both earthiness and edge. With intuitive processes and sloth like patience my execution of ideas unfolds slowly… shaped by both thoughtful experimentation and careful reflection.

Then as a teenager, the first commission I took on was a memorial portrait of a Golden Retriever puppy.
Dogs have always been dear companions to me and since that work; intimate Memento Mori works have become a meaningful thread within my practice.

I am currently in a season of personal rebuilding and renewal with a focus on more creative writing and structured commissions rather that developing any new works in 2026.
