Working away on some small works capturing Binalong bay in Tasmania capturing the shifting light of the dawn.
It’s been nice to go to small scale after working on my previous larger works.
These are acrylic on recycled sign panels

Over the past month I have been toiling away on this major piece, Afternoon at Killy, capturing the rugged beauty of the Australian coast. This piece will be in show at #inverloch this Easter long weekend #art #painting #beach #coast

Last week I painted my favourite beach scene so far! Things flowed so great through the whole process and now I have it entered in a big juried show. Fingers crossed it makes it in! #art #painting #beach #waves

It’s been a busy week in the studio as I develop this new scene of the Tasmanian wilderness. It’s great to get a focussed run on a piece like this! #tasmania #landscape #painting #art #wilderness

Here is a look at my latest Rockpool painting. This is loaded with textures and impact, and was a heap of fun to create! What do you think of it? I really wanted to make it tactile #painting #artist #artprocess #artforyou

I had some wonderful news today! I picked up best in show at the #gasworksartpark paint out! Being a plein air event I jumped at the opportunity to participate and work in a timed setting (3 hours to paint). Very keen to see what everyone created! #pleinair #australianartist #art
