Paintings

I started sketching and drawing at the age of nine but did not get into using colour until my early twenties. I started fabric painting on T-shirts and selling them. I was introduced to folk art in 1990 and after four lessons my life was changed. Within a few months I was selling my work and teaching others. I moved to Papua New Guinea in 1992 and continued selling and teaching Folk Art. In PNG I started painting PNG landscapes on to cards. As these became very popular, I was commissioned to paint PNG landscapes onto Canvas. Over the years I have researched, read books, watched DVD’s, taken lessons and worked at enhancing my artistic skills. I have more recently ventured into acrylic pour. Although I am not an abstract artist, I love the way the colours move and flow together. It is easy and relaxing. I thank and praise God every day for my talants.
