Just a note

My formal degree is in Graphic Design, however painting is my foremost passion.
I don’t try to portray realistic botanicals or nature, for me the joy is in the imagining, put that bloom here, those weeds or storm clouds there, of being totally absorbed in the moment, intoxicated by vivid colours.  It's the perfect escape, whether wild or controlled. This is how I pay tribute to our natural world as it reminds us, to slow down, look closely and see how chaos and beauty go side by side.
