A moment suspended,
encapsulating the beauty and stillness of nature, and sometimes of a world in balance.

My work is botanically inspired, with a focus on the impacts of climate change. I live in a rural area in Australia.

This is the work l have been doing with the @arabo This is the work l have been doing with the @araboston over the last few years. It's quite different to my other work and it's all done work only a 2B graphite pencil, a kneadable eraser and a knitting needle (for taking measurements), under the watchful and demanding eye of @ericjohnsonartist. This atelier style training goes back to traditional methods for training as a painter ... first learn how to draw by copying from the Old Masters, under the tutelage of a living Master! Get this part of the process right ... and the rest will follow!

I love moths and butterflies. They are always joy I love moths and butterflies. They are always joyous as they dance in the sunlight or moonlight, and they are such pretty things when you look at them closely. Both are important pollinators for plants too - they are essential elements in our ecosystem.
Delighted to have been awarded first prize at the Delighted to have been awarded first prize at the Foundry Art Space in Echuca for this artwork, a tryptich, telling a story of our impact on the environment. Nature speaks to us in many ways, and we really need to take the time to listen ... and respond. Thanks to my fellow artists, the staff at The Foundry and the judges. If you haven't been to the beautiful river town of Echuca, it's worth a visit to see this exhibition and to learn more about this unique town, it's history (indigenous and european) and its natural environment.
Today marks my halfway point for The Scrolls and m Today marks my halfway point for The Scrolls and my protest against what is happening to our environment, and to you and to me, because of climate change. 1500 days ago the UN said we had to keep average global temperatures below 1.5 degrees C (or 2.7 F) by 2030. Well, l think you know what is happening on that front as well as l do. Still, l continue. This work now tells so many stories of the plants, animals, insects, reptiles and people l have met on this journey. Five Scrolls are complete - each with its own theme, and Scroll 6 is on the way. Today ... 1500 drawings ... 1500 days. Only another 1500 days until we reach 2030. I wonder what our world will have to say to us then?
Curled lace from the forest’s weathered soul (1) Curled lace from the forest’s weathered soul (1) Watercolour, graphite and gouache Few people appreciate that plants have a purpose and lives beyond their use by people.  Lichen is necessary for trees, which are the lungs of the planet.  To have lichen in your garden is a real privilege – it is a sign of clean air! This little lichen had found a home on a metal garden table, beneath a fruit tree.
