Studio Journal
My journal is much more than a diary—it’s a record of my creative journey, helping you understand why a painting exists, why I chose to work on this at this time and not just how it was made.
From time to time, I will share my thoughts, struggles, and successes in this journal.

Wellington Railway Station
Located at 2 Bunny Street, Pipitea, serves as the primary public transport hub for New Zealand's capital city. As the busiest rail terminus in the country, it serves as the southern gateway for the North Island Main Trunk line, linking urban commuters and long-distance travellers alike.
Working on a new sketch over the next couple of days.
Working on my next sketch of an iconic Wellington building that most of us Wellingtonians who have frequently on a regular occasion.
Any idea what Building this is?

My latest painting is inspired again by the very talented photographer Sue Henley. A big thank you to Sue for encouraging me to paint this from one of her beautiful images.

‘59 Corvette
This morning I woke up and wanted to draw another classic car for my small drawing series for these beautiful machines. I had been looking at images and videos of Chevrolet Corvette’s and found one I really liked. Thinking to myself - if I ever purchased a classic car, this might be the one.
