Visual Art – Wollongong

I am a self-taught artist who dreams of changing the universe! I feel I have an eclectic style, delving into the mind, harnessing emotions, using many mediums with mixed media to make something come to life and create a specific feeling for the viewer. I started my creativity from an early age, inspired by my father and other artists. Impressing young and old through school with my creativity and dabbling in my love for music, I struggled to be heard and eventually stood back as I was ‘discouraged’ (being an artist doesn’t put food on the table…right?)! Finally, I rediscovered my passion! I strive to create each and every day - even while raising my young family. My art has kicked back into maximum gear after a long break…there is no stopping me now! I not only love creating artwork, but also enjoy fabric design and crafty things! I dream of teaching and making people happy with my art by stirring the emotion within. I want my art to feel like an answer or escape for the individual viewing it…remember, it’s all about changing the universe!
