I'm a professional artist and First Nations Strategic Advisor:

- Art Commissions
- Artwork Licensing
- Artwork for merchandise and Reconciliation Action Plans
- Collaborations
- My artworks express my connections to my Aboriginal culture, in contemporary expressions of now.

My painting style is a contemporary fusion of abstract art and cultural motifs. I use flowing lines and groups of Aboriginal symbols to narrate a story and preserve cultural traditions, it’s the way my old people communicated with me, via line and symbol drawings in the earth/ground. This style represents my Aboriginal culture and the abstracts of my culture, which arose from colonisation.
