Welcome to my portfolio. Here you'll find selection of my work divided by media type:
Or you can jump to works collected by location:
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.
Terns before the Storm
A flock of crested terns lined up facing into the wind before a storm arrived. Despite the cloud cover, the water always remained vibrantly turquoise.

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.
Skeleton Bay
Painted in gouache from photo reference. Early morning before the sun has come up ove the dunes, some of the beach remains shaded while the light starts touching the water.
Ray on the Reef
This one was a little bit experimental and fun. I wanted to play with colours and textures and putting in a maskray to swim over this colourful and abstract reef just seemed like the right thing to do.
Lionfish
A pair of lionfish under the Exmouth Navy pier.
Lionfish
A lino print of the first lionfish I ever met on a night snokel in Coral Bay back in 2016. Never quite managed to get the registration marks right for the two colour blocks to line up properly. But that adds character right?
Five Fingers Reef
A gouache painting of one of my favourite snorkelling spots in Coral Bay. Yes, the water really is that turquoise.
Lemon Damsel
Just a little lemon damsel among the corals. Painted in goauche on tan paper.
Giant Clam

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.
Pearl-barred owlet
These tiny little owls make very distinctive call. I felt so lucky to get this shot of it looking right at us.

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
Kalbarri
A beautifully rugged part of WA. The orange rocks were a joy to paint.

Tasmania
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.
Clarke's Beach
I loved painting the waves on this one but would love to go back and re-do the clouds. But I learnt a lot from this painting and that's the important thing!
Leopard Shark lift-off
Diving at Julian Rocks in May meant there were plenty of leopard sharks around.
Tallows Beach
Plein air watercolour of Tallows Beach in Byron Bay. One of my first attempts at a plein air painting!
Heading down from the Lighthouse
A view from the road heading back into Byron Bay from the lighthouse.
Anemone Fish
I drew this on the flight home with Tombow markers. This adorable anemone fish watched me from its bubble anemone home.
Julian Rocks
A simple pen study of the view out to Julian Rocks, which even years after visiting is still one of my favourite dive sites in Australia.
Byron Bay Lighthouse
Looking out to the sun coming up over the sea. This was one of my first ever gouache paintings.
Wobbegong
I'm not sure if this is a typical Julian Rocks thing, but on all my dives on this trip there were wobbegongs almost everywhere you looked.
