Born Sydney,
NSW.
Attended evening classes in Sculpture and Drawing while training
to be a registered nurse at Royal Newcastle Hospital, NSW.
After graduation, attended East Sydney Technical College (National
Art School) for full time study in Sculpture.
My central artistic concern has been to communicate sculptural
images, which evoke a sense of strength and timelessness out
of volume and form. |
