These works hold the stillness and mystery I feel in water — where the world softens and sound disappears. Inspired by swimming in oceans and rivers, they capture moments of quiet escape, introspection, and weightless calm.
New works exploring the threshold between states — above and below, held and released, seen and unseen.
Light filtered through water — diffused, shifting, alive. Each work captures a different quality of underwater luminosity.
The particular light of Spring Creek — cool, dappled, alive with movement. A place returned to again and again.
Painted in the spirit of the Daintree Rainforest — ancient water, dense canopy, the feeling of being held by something far older than memory.
Bodies submerged, suspended, free. The underwater world as a space of quiet and transformation.
Individual works that stand alone — each one a complete meditation on water, movement, and the quiet power of being submerged.
