Thank you for visiting my site and taking the time to look at my work.

 

Painting and drawing since childhood, I've always been drawn to both experiencing and creating art.  I believe in avoiding confinement to a single genre, instead embracing experimentation across techniques, mediums and styles as a vital part of my practice.
Charcoal and pastel works, along with oil painting, remain my greatest passions, allowing me to explore depth, texture and emotion in every piece I create.

​

Many of my works, photographic, paintings and drawings, have found homes around the world.

Accomplishments as a photographer and artist include winning the trophy for best Small Art Exhibit, Sydney Art Expo 2012 for photography and digital art.

Several solo and collaborative exhibitions have been held, including:

 “Infinites of Blue” Blue Mountains Artists Network Exhibition, NSW State Parliament, March 2016;
“Bygone Eras – Portraits of the Past with Gerlinde Thomas, Oil Painter, Gallery One88, Katoomba, August, 2016;
Blue Mountains Portrait Exhibition, 2018 – Portrait selected and displayed, “Farewell”, Blue Mountains City Gallery;

Blue Mountains Portrait Exhibition, 2019 – Portrait selected and displayed, “Julia”, Blue Mountains City Gallery;

 

Finalist several years running for the Lethbridge 10000 Small Art Competition, Paddington QLD;

 

Highly Commended award winner at the Infinites of Blue Exhibition held at State Parliament House (NSW) for a digital art image "Bush Poles" 2016;

​

Finalist 2026 Fairholm 'Facets' Art Prize, Toowoomba for two art works: Winx and Hugh Bowman and Pharlap and Jim Pike.  Both works Graphite and Charcoal on paper.

​

From 2013 to 2020 I owned and managed the Little Wombat Gallery in Faulconbridge which represented other accomplished local artists as well as my own work.  This came to a close when we moved to the Sunshine Coast, Queensland in 2020.

​

Now concentrating on mainly painting and drawing, I am still occasionally working in the field of photography.

Commissions are welcomed.
