​Thank you for visiting and taking a few minutes to look at my work.  I maintain  this site as a place to display some of my drawings.  If you get something out of it too, maybe a little inspiration, then that's a bonus. Improvement is slow and not necessarily linear but over time I get closer to my goals.


​ I have five children and nine grand children and I recently completed a BA in Fine Arts. I live very happily in Perth, Western Australia.





I  appreciate the simplicity and immediacy of pencil including graphite, colour and pastel.
Some choose to use drawing as a planning  tool but I prefer to enjoy drawing as both journey and destination. With improvement in light fastness I hope that one day colour pencil will be considered a fine art medium with value equal to oils or acrylics. I enjoy being totally absorbed in the act of creating, of losing track of time and the almost meditative process of building  layers. It is a calm and gentle and all absorbing space to inhabit.
