The Artist
About My Studio
With over 30 years of experience, I create multi-media artistic pieces from my two studios in Thomastown and Hurstbridge, Victoria.
Each piece is individually handcrafted from mild steel and stainless steel, creating a beautiful contrast between warm rust tones and polished shine. No two pieces are exactly alike.
I've been part of the Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show since 1999, winning multiple Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals.
