Gold Coast
Cooly Swimmers
Cooly Swimmers
The Southern beaches of the Gold Coast are some of the most idyllic, cleanest beaches in the world.
Certainly the most inspirational and joyful.
The coastal walk brings your feet close to the water whilst your soul is swept away in the gentle tide.
I love living in this part of the world and the last 12 months have found me meeting the most wonderful people and experiencing the blue seas of the coast.
The painting depicts, the things I love the most:
Snapper Rocks in the distance
Greenmount Hill
Coolangatta Beach with five of the guys I swim with, including Bruce who is floating out to see (he loves swimming out deep)!
The colours of the Coolangatta Surf Lifesaving Club are red/white/blue.

This piece is a paint over of a semi-final making piece in the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize.

Cheeky Pussies
Cheeky Pussies
Imagine finding yourself on an island, a Greek island surrounded by bountiful fish and sea life to feast upon, salt air and freedom to roam. This is the life of the Mykonos Cat.
Skulking around alley ways, searching for fish remains and delights, the black cats live a privileged and opulent existence.
In this street scene the cats in the foreground forage the alley way as tourists shop in boutique stores. It is a harmony enjoyed by all on Mykonos Island.
