2024: I spent 8 months as a 'Studio Artist' in the Stables at The Farm, Margaret River. WA. The time was spent rebooting my painting practice without a commitment to an exhibition and a focus on getting back to oil painting. I now have a purpose built painting studio on our property in the South West of Wa.
