At the start of 2026 I badly sprained a finger whilst on holiday with my family.  Due to the injury, I wasn't able to paint in the way that I usually do (fine, detailed realism).  So I took the opportunity to explore some different ways of painting while my finger healed.  As a result, I decided to create a small body of abstract work and really enjoyed the process!  I am naturally drawn to both organic and geometric shapes which is where the inspiration for these paintings came from.  I also wanted to create some abstracts that would pair well in either a contemporary or mid century modern interior.   

​

The artworks range in size from 28cm square to 63cm square and are priced from $500 to $1500.  All all framed in custom made Blackwood floating frames. 

 

They will be exclusively auctioned over coming months with Artbid, however if any of them do take your interest, please feel free to contact me.

Artist Statement:

 

The Balance In Between explores the ongoing tension between opposing forces in life, and our attempts to bring them into harmony — where neither fully overpowers the other. It reflects a mindful, evolving process, one that shifts and develops.

 

Through a dialogue between geometric and organic forms, this work mirrors the mindful, evolving process of balancing life’s contradictions. Whilst these forces are fundamentally different, they can coexist in a state of equilibrium—a process that matures and shifts through the different stages of our lives.

​

Geometric and organic shapes represent these opposing forces.  However, with self compassion, patience and mindfulness, it is possible for these forces to be placed in harmony."
