Every garden needs a gardener to tend and care for it. In the wind and rain, the heat and drought, a garden carries on with the help of the gardener. Jesus refers to this in the Bible, when he says that he is the vine and his heavenly father is the gardener.

I have been influenced by the style and composition of Early Renaissance Art (1300-1450). The sisters, Mary and Martha, feature in the Bible. Martha is dutiful while Mary is devotional. In their sisterly relationship, Mary and Martha experienced misunderstandings, tension, and rivalry. Sadly, today women have similar experiences in their friendships.

Nature has a beat. Listen to the rhythm of the gum leaves. Silence the engine sounds. Silence the noise. And listen to the sounds all around.

There are gardens of hope in our desert spaces.




Colourful fish swirl in a watery reality, floating with seaweed, starfish and anemones at the Melbourne Aquarium. I wanted to create a sense of the movement, vibrancy and contentment these fish have.

Hanging Rock pounds out stories in all weathers. With lightning, stories flash with vibrant electrical energy, while in droughts, stories speak in cracked parched tones.



Calming Arts had the pleasure of exhibiting various works in a number of VAS Exhibitions in 2025:


'My Parents' is the Portrait I chose to exhibit, receiving the Curator's Choice Award.

I have been inspired by Wordsworth's poem 'Daffodils'.


A mixture of sweet and sour, sour and sweet. Are you having a sweet and sour day too?
