About the Artist
Born in Melbourne, 1962. I have been a painter of the surreal since 1977. My images elucidate the bizarre, fantastic and surreal. I am self-taught. Computer manipulated photomontages deriving from my own photographic material date from 1999. These digital works are an extension of the iconography I developed in my oil paintings.
