"Modern birds as we know them evolved from the dinosaurs. Towards the end of the Mesozoic period there existed a host of feathered, ‘bird like’ dinosaurs. These are my inspiration today, ranging from fossils to the amazing array of colours, shapes and forms to the vast variations of birds that now exist worldwide. Looking back to another civilisation, the Egyptians have inspired a series of etchings based primarily on the ‘Cat’ who was worshiped and mummified according to the law of the day."

The exhibition is open until December 17.

"The Nuevo Apacheta (new apacheta) are inspired by the forms and colours of the ancient and contemporary cultures of Latin America. The practice of using complimentary colours in their traditional textiles and architecture continues today throughout Latin America. If you look, you will see the use of "high visibility colour" in Australia too."

The exhibition is open until December 17.

My inspiration is drawn from a visit some time ago to outback Australia. The heightened colour, vast expanses and patterned forms seen there, offer me the freedom not found in suburbia, or for that part, not found in country Victoria where I have lived prior to moving to Melbourne 10 years ago. I came to realize I had discovered inspiration that could occupy me for a life time.

The exhibition is open until December 17.

The Mask Collage Series has its origin in a studio flood. Several large paintings being damaged. While storing the damaged canvases the colour, texture and vibrancy of the paintings inspired me to use them to create new work, thus the collage series evolved. The faces are not worked over, or painted on, rather cut directly from the original canvas, building textural layers of colour and form, giving the series its unique quality.

The exhibition is open until December 17.
