Farm Sheds
Time has stood still for decades on many Queensland farms thus making them interesting subjects for painting.
Warm Sunlight
Paintings of warm sunlight falling onto a tropical veranda warm the heart and lift the spirits.
Markets
Many vibrant market scenes can be seen on weekend mornings around Brisbane. They make great subject matter for paintings.
Queensland Homes
Old Queensland houses often feature extensive back gardens and an architecture typical of the period in which they were built. High stumps, window hoods, stove recesses were all common on these old homes.
Gardens and Pools
Plants, gardens and pools have been a lifelong interest of mine and paintings of gardens are often part of my work.
Horses in Paintings
I like horses and have many sketchbooks of horse drawings to use as the source material for paintings.
Picket Fences
Paintings of picket fences from around Brisbane homes.
Gum Blossoms
Many different types of eucalypt produce flowers. These flowers lend much character to our streets and suburbs. The blossoms make beautiful subject matter for still life painting.
Places of the Heart
Places of the heart is a group of paintings around the theme of home. The paintings try to capture the peace we feel when we are in our most familiar place, the home.
Dragons
Dragons are a feature of the myths and legends of many cultures and is shown very frequently on blue and white porcelain. I have selected still life studies of dragons depicted with Australian flowers.
