| Your Personal Biography |
I'm a 39 year old multi-disciplined artist and designer and secondary school teacher who lives and works in Auckland, New Zealand. I have been practicing art since going to Art School in Wanganui, New Zealand in 1995. Where I majored in ceramics and graduating in 2000. Due to studio restraints I moved away from ceramics when moving to Auckland and pursued painting which is in my blood due to a mother and great grand father who had the passion also. Over the past two years I have revisited the realm of 3D thinking and I am finding much delight in creating these sculptures.
Among my disciplines are painting landscapes and abstractions in oils and acrylics.
Sculpture using found materials, wood, stone, clay and steel.
Digital photography and even digital video.
I draw my ideas from my surroundings, with much of my work deals with social and ecological issues. These are either portrait as conceptual or stylized in a literal way. |
