Did you know that we're in partnership with Byron School of Art and that we have a rotation of new artists exhibiting their works throughout the year; all works are produced in and around Byron Bay by local artists and are available for purchase.

19 October – 6 December 2017

Statement

The subject matter utilizes landmarks within northern NSW, in particular highlighting the irony and impact of human intervention within natural environments and, more recently, revisiting urban architecture and the ‘urban condition’.

Bio

I Have a deep interest in abstracting the landscape. Places and people are my subjects that help me capture the Australian vernacular.

My approach is to sketch and paint plein air in mixed media and complete later in the studio with oils.
