Drawing

Prismacolor on Stonehenge paper

My body of work conveys the essence of Australian summer - its warmth, spontaneity and quiet nostalgia. Inspired by my childhood in Port Macquarie, each coloured pencil drawing represents family photographs as moments suspended in light. My intention is for the soft edges and candid compositions to communicate the fleeting simplicity of those days, celebrating the beauty found in ordinary, sun-soaked moments.

My artmaking practice has been influenced by the study and interpretation of the following artists: Amii Harwood, Maude Ovize, Lana Del Rey.
