    Background

    I grew up in a household where my three siblings and I were continually exposed to music, books and painting. One of my earliest memories is of Dad taking us down to Mordialloc Creek in the 1950's with our drawing pads and pencils. We spent the day sitting on the banks of the creek sketching the boats. Great fun! Dad was always painting and encouraged his kids to do the same. Over the years I have always dabbled with painting, but with kids of my own and working full time, it has not been until I retired at the end of 2014 and moved to Bendigo that I have been able to devote myself to this, and now have the freedom to paint everyday! Two artists whose work I love and admire are Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall. Their vibrant use of colour and bold lines are an inspiration for my own work, where I love to see the colour explode off the canvas and into my studio!
