Beauty in landscapes – painting is among my greatest joys
Over the past four decades, I’ve been captivated by Australian landscapes, especially those close to my home in South Australia. The Flinders Ranges, Fleurieu Peninsula and Kangaroo Island are constant sources of inspiration, along with the Adelaide foothills around Brownhill Creek.
I see my artistic endeavours and winemaking as two forms of creative expression; both are guided by the natural world and seek to capture and share beauty.
