"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives" Annie Dillard, Author

I have been pondering this statement of late as I prepare for my upcoming SALA festival exhibition 'Gathered'. It is a reminder that what makes life meaningful, is not grandiose successes but the simple ordinary things we do each day. Through my paintings, and the actual painting process itself, it is my intention to tune into and pay attention to these beautiful, meaningful moments.

I look forward to sharing more with you about the exhibition shortly, but I can share with you for now that it will be held between 28 July to 31 August at the gorgeous homewares store Best Wishes in Adelaide's Burnside Village.

In the meantime, here is a peek into some behind the scenes progress!
