ARTIST BIO

At secondary school I studied art up to year 12 level, after which I did life drawing at CAE and oil painting classes in Essendon under Paul McDonald Smith.

Then after raising a family, I returned in 2007 to classes at Whitehorse Arts Association. I took classes for 7 years under Alan Close learning a broad range of techniques, mediums and subject matter.  This also included one year of portraiture and life drawing classes. Whilst still at Whitehorse Arts Association, in 2009 I also started classes in watercolour with Malcolm Beattie at Peninsula Art Society.  In 2010 I then began Malcolm's tonal oil class at his studio in Camberwell, where I was taught the traditional tonal method only using black and white, and after 12 months progressing to colour.  I continued in this class for 7 years.  I feel lucky to have had such talented and knowledgeable teachers and am still striving to reach their standards! 

I am a full member of the Australian Guild of Realist Artists (AGRA),  the Melbourne Society of Women Painters and Sculptors, Whitehorse Arts Association and the Victorian Artists Society

I like to paint everyday subjects, often with figures and I always consider light and tone.
