Volcanic Tempest acrylic on 50cm round canvas captures the volatile weather in the Hunter Valley, where the volcanic soil and harsh weather are ideal hot spots for wineries. Metallic reds, pinks and earthen undertones constrast with cells of bubbling black lava that laces on the surface of this artwork. The metallic qualities of this abstract acrylic artwork reflect the changing lighting condition of the room it is exhibited in. This artwork has a warm and comforting presence in the room. Like an ancient gemstone sliced from the Australian soil, Volcanic Tempest is layered with earthen warm colours.

Wescover creator since 2020
Based in Hunter Valley Wine Country, the Australian Landscape is a reoccurring theme of my artworks. After studying at the University of Newcastle and Charles Sturt, I developed my sculptural and jewellery manufacturing skills before teaching Visual Arts in the Upper and Lower Hunter regions of NSW. The beauty and unique qualities of the Australian Landscape became apparent while I was travelling throughout the United States and Canada. The expansive coastlines and natural lakes that define the environment along side hidden valleys and majestic mountainous ranges are a constant source of inspiration. Ancient gemstones and her jewellery making practice are strongly referenced in the abstract compositions. An obsession with colour and textural qualities are explored through her delicate chalk pastel works and the bold expressive alcohol ink and fluid acrylic works.
