Artist Statement

  Coming from an artistic family I've always been interested in art.  In terms of developing my skills I've been left mostly to my own devices, as there weren't many opportunities for artists in Cobar while I was at school.   Probably deciding to further my studies at university and changing to the Fine Arts program has been the best thing for me.  I usually work in a Japanese manga influenced style, but I have recently started to expand and started experimenting with different styles, with a focus on illustration and fantasy art.  I also work mostly in ink and other traditional media, with a drawing background but I've also worked in paint, printmaking and sculpture.  I'm now starting to work digitally and with photography as well.
