Hi and welcome to this small corner of the Internet. I am a professional Australian artist, painting in oil, watercolour and mixed media.

I have been painting for thirty years and teaching art (watercolor and mixed media) for ten years. This website started as an aid for ex students, but has grown into an online resource of watercolour techniques, painting materials and information on design and colour.

It is aimed at helping you get more out of this fascinating and addictive pursuit. I hope you enjoy it.
