"I've been painting since 1971 when the pervading perfume of linseed oil in a Sydney artists supplies shop awakened me to my real interest in art. My love of the bush made landscape painting the obvious choice of subject.

I have lived in various parts of Victoria and travelled extensively in NSW and Queensland painting and drawing, most recently in the Noosa hinterland. I've now settled in Castlemaine where I am renewing earlier connections."
