Throughout my life, the common threads of drawing and painting, and my deep love and connection to our Australian birds, flora and landscapes have been intertwined with my numerous careers.

My last career was as a photographer and videographer (you can see my portfolio site here), documenting and telling personal stories. All of my careers have brought me here to surface design.

The words (below) of Australian artist, botanical illustrator and conservationist, Kathleen McArthur, best sum up how I feel about our Australian flora and birds, and what I hope to achieve through my designs.

“Because our flowers have never settled into our consciousness they are not seen. People can drive through square miles of colourful, massed displays of bloom and simply not see it.

It is only when the mind opens that the flowers bloom.

It follows that if the flowers cannot be seen, they do not exist in the minds, so there can be no thought in those minds of protecting and preserving them for posterity.”

So if you are looking for unique designs characteristic of our Australian birds, flora and landscapes, I invite you to check out my collections, visit my shop, or get in touch below. I would love to collaborate with you on any sewing, design and/or licensing projects you have in mind.
