A selection of exhibitions and prizes are listed below but to paraphrase ....... I'm best known for large format landscapes in Oil Pastel, Pigment and Paint.
Most recently I have been selected as a Finalist in the 2016 Paddington Art Prize with the work featured below 'Cloud Garden One'.
Below is a list of some of the many prestigious prizes I have been a finalist in, including the Dobell and Sulman at the AGNSW, The Blake, Paddington and Manning and Country Energy Prizes. I have been also been Highly Commended and the Peoples Choice in the Redlands Westpac Prize, five times a Finalist in the Paddington Art Prize for Australian landscape.
I have also been winner of the Peoples Choice (Paddington Art Prize 2006), Eco Art Prize (2002), Hunters Hill Art Prize (2007) and Paddington Art Prize for Australian Landscape (2012).
