I live on a hill in coastal tropical Queensland, Australia - right at the toe of the Great Barrier Reef.
Most of my days are spent happily working away in my open space studio. Bundles of natural light stream in and sunbeams dance across the pool. Parrots and other native birds come to sample the abundance flowers all year round and give me plenty of inspiration. Thank you for visiting and I hope you find something very special for yourself.
