Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef
Heron Island is a coral cay on the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef. It is home to multitudes of rays, sharks and birds. I visited the island in 2022 and 2025, this is a collection of work done on the island and back home from reference over both trips.
Ningaloo Reef
Ningaloo Reef is a fringing reef in Western Australia sitting just above the Tropic of Capricorn. I don't think words can fully capture the wonder of Ningaloo, so I'm hoping art and photography does a better job. I've been lucky to spend a lot of time at Ningaloo for science and for holidays so I've built up a large body of work featuring Ningaloo's landscapes, seascapes and wildlife.
The works in this collection include watercolour, gouache, acrylics and lino prints and gigabytes of photos.
South Africa
Being originally from South Africa, taking a trip back in 2024 meant a lot to me. It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with family and explore some amazing places. This collection features works from the Drakensberg Mountains, the Kruger National Park and Johannesburg.
Western Australia
Aside from Ningaloo, Western Australia still has so many beautiful places to offer. This collection includes art I've made from everywhere else in WA using watercolour, lino, gouache and acyrlic. And of course photography
Tasmania
Tasmania is the southern-most state of Australia and the influence of the southern ocean climate gives the island a very different feel compared to the mainland even though there are a lot of similarities in the geology, flora and fauna. I've been visiting Tasmania regularly for many years but feel like I've barely scratched the surface of what it has to offer for artistic inspiration.
Byron Bay and Julian Rocks
Byron Bay was one of the first places I travelled to for plein air painting. During this trip I did a combination of underwater photography, watercolour and sketching with Tombow markers.
You can read more about this trip on the blog post I wrote about it.
