‘Moving the Mokes’, 2025, Acrylic on Canvas, 1500 x 1800mm This is the direction I aspire to take with my work. In this painting, I aimed to capture the chaotic ways things get done. Creativity plays a crucial role in completing tasks, and there's never a dull moment. The scene depicts the process of moving old, rusted Mokes onto a truck, with this moment showing the beginning of the lifting process. It conveys the anticipation and excitement as we watch to see if our plan will succeed.
‘Windy Days’, 2024, Acrylic and Oil on Canvas 800 x 1000mm This painting captures the weather challenges faced on the farm. No matter the conditions, the cows still need their feed. It symbolizes the everyday obstacles farmers encounter and the creativity required to overcome them. The sunset in the background reflects the good days and the reasons behind the hard work we put in.
‘Resting Beneath the Gum’, 2025, Oil on Canvas, Diptych, 950 x 2860mm This painting is of a Gum that fell many years ago. It has been there through everything, the coldest winters and hottest summers. A friend's dog rests below this tree, buried a few years back. This is another special part of our property. The shade provided by this gum is shared by sheep, lambs, cows, new born calves and alpacas. It also acts as a great scratching post.
‘The Heart of the Field’, 2025, Oil on Canvas 1350 x 1350mm This is a painting of my partner’s previous dog’s grave stone in our paddock. A very special stone that means a lot to so many people. I chose to paint this at sunset to share the warm memories that this rock brings people.
‘In the Yard’, 2025, Charcoal and Oil on canvas, 1100 x 800mm. The chaos of young calves in the yard, dust clouds are formed as they are yet to become familiar with people.

'The Farm Cottage', 2025, 920 x 460 cm Oil on Canvas
'Where are we', oil on canvas, 2024 Pink, a common colour in the clothes I wore as a child, is now rarely seen on me. I have placed my younger self in a rural outback location I visited in the past year to emphasise the discomfort I would have felt then, contrasting with my current desire for new places and adventures.
'Where are we', oil on canvas, 2024 Wishing I spent more time exploring South Australia as a child, I have painted my younger self at an imaginary beach, shovelling sand.
'A Drawing of my Future', oil on canvas, 2024 I have played around with loose brushstrokes and child-like sketches, reflecting on the playful marks that were once made when I was younger, now to be taken over by more realistic art style. Characters from childhood books appear in the dark shadows, showing what I was once afraid of.
