An abstract artist from Adelaide, that had a dream and kept chasing it. My first exhibition was even called Dream Chaser! Noticing a theme?

I followed my passion and created a beautiful, messy creative life around it.

Tapping into my creativity gave me clarity and confidence and it can do this for you too.

Nothing lifts me up more than seeing other artists step into their creativity and really come alive. Through my online classes, retreats and podcasts, I help artists to do just that!
