I’m a Melbourne-based digital abstract artist exploring how technology and emotion intersect through color, form, and texture. My work unfolds in Photoshop, where I build intricate layers using glitch techniques, fractal structures, and spontaneous gestures to create compositions that feel both deliberate and unpredictable.
My process is a balance of instinct and precision — I let color and shape evolve intuitively, yet I also sculpt each layer with intent. This duality mirrors the tension between chaos and order, emotion and structure, that defines much of the digital world.
I’m deeply influenced by the expressive freedom of abstract expressionism and artists like Jackson Pollock, whose energy I reinterpret through a digital lens. Each piece is a journey into abstraction —a visual language of feeling, rhythm, and movement. Through my work, I aim to forge connections between the artist, the artwork, and the observer, inviting reflection and open interpretation.

Have been with gallery247 for 6 years, both free and now paid. Wonderful on line platform for artists which has made my work easy to find and i don't need to worry about setting up my own website; they even forwarded a message from a community college i volunteered for a few years ago, for an art tutor.
