I studied at East Sydney Tech, now the National Art School. I went on to teach art at all levels from kindergarten to secondary school. I also trained as a Diversional Therapist and worked in numerous hospitals.
I am now running my own residential art school on our farm west of Sydney and my mantra is anyone can learn to draw and therefore paint.
I have been exhibiting with Maunsell Wickes gallery (formally Barry Stern) for about 30 years, showing both sculptures and paintings, and will be there again this December.
