My first ‘Summer Sale’ is coming to an end on November 18. It has been an interesting couple of weeks, and I am very grateful for the response I have received from collectors in Australia and around the world. 

A big thank you to everyone who responded to my Summer Sale. I have sold 12 paintings to collectors over the last 2 weeks, including a number of people coming back to buy a second or even a third painting. 

Over the last 9 years I have spent this time busily preparing for the annual Noosa Open Studios exhibition, painting, hanging artworks and displaying signage. This year, I decided to take a little break from that and instead, celebrate the summer with a 40% off sale on all my paintings.

I recently returned from a trip to Portugal and Andalusia Spain. Wow. What an experience. I loved the medieval towns, the mosques, the cathedrals, the olive groves and the relaxed lifestyle, but what really struck me was the Moorish influence. 

Noosa Open Studios has become a much loved, annual celebration of art in the Noosa region. Over the course of 10 days, from August 30 to September 8, collectors will have the opportunity of visiting over 100 artists in their private studios. 

We are closing in on the end of the 2024 financial year in Australia, so it’s time to remind everyone that you can claim a 100% tax deduction for art purchased under the Instant Asset Write-off Scheme. On top of that, I am offering 10% off all artworks till June 30, 2024.

I grew up in the port city of Southampton, developed as an artist in Sydney and now have my studio in the coastal town of Peregian Beach, part of the Noosa region of Australia. I am most happy when I live in walking distance to the ocean, but my secret love is the desert.

In January, I visited Vietnam to explore the ancient cities of Hanoi and Hoi An and the evocative islands of HaLong Bay. HaLong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its emerald waters and towering limestone islands.
