About the Artist

Unlock the Artist Within – With Over 30 Years of Expertise

As a Brisbane-based art specialist and qualified art instructor, I am deeply passionate about both teaching and creating art. With over three decades of experience, I’ve had the joy and privilege of nurturing the creative journey of students ranging from 5 years old to 75 and beyond. I believe everyone has an artist within—just waiting to be guided, encouraged, and inspired.

My artistic journey has taken me around the world—including formal study in Florence, Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance. This immersive experience enriched my practice with a deep appreciation for classical techniques, European art history, and cultural expression. I have successfully exhibited and sold my own artworks, which fuels my passion for continually evolving as both a creator and a teacher.

While I proudly work as an art educator with Brisbane Catholic Education, and practicing professional artist, I also run a dynamic, independent art business devoted to unlocking creativity in all its forms. Whether you're exploring art for the first time or looking to develop advanced techniques, I tailor every experience to suit the individual’s unique artistic path.
