Finestra is the Italian word for window and these works offer glimpses into my worlds both real and imagined. The works depict the landscapes of North East Victoria in macro and micro ways; they look to the vast ranges and plains as much as to the cracks between granite and the carvings of scribbly gum moths, often layering this imagery in a single painting. My interest is not in a visual representation of the landscape but in deep contemplation and distillation of the emotions and feelings of a place. My landscapes are reflections of my inner world rather than references to a specific place and are deeply personal delving into the places where art, nature and healing intersect.
