I was commissioned to make some paintings at Wantagong, a farming property near Holbrook in NSW. I spent a long weekend sketching at the property and completed a number of paintings in my studio in Sydney. These are a selection from the resulting body of work.

I spent time sketching in a paddock that had been managed as a rewilding project, and in a different meadow that had grown wild from being left untended. These paintings were made in the studio from the plein air drawing and paintings. They were exhibited as part of the exhibition "Landscape" at Studio W Gallery, Sydney and a further selection in the solo exhibition “Meadow” at Jennings Kerr Gallery, Robertson, NSW Jan 17-Feb9 2025

These works were made in the studio. This derelict site is behind my house so I had access to it for sketching during covid restrictions.

I made my first hand painted watercolour animation and exhibited it alongside these 6 watercolours.

All works are 20x20 cm watercolour on primed board. These were exhibited at Project 90 gallery in Paddington NSW.

I rented a cottage for 8 months in the historic village of Carcoar NSW. These works are painted directly from life outdoors or started from life and finished in the studio.
