I’m a high-energy person, at my best when busy and productive. Highly imaginative and a strong visualiser. After years of hearing on-set stories from friends and family, I am looking for a move into the industry.

I have 40 years experience as a graphic designer, illustrator, painter, exhibitor and 15 years facilitating art workshops for adults, children, teenagers.

Open to roles that I can bring my visual arts skills,  art assist, props assist, standby painter, scenic artist, set painter …

Can work locally on the Gold Coast, for long stints, or dailies, depending on what I can assist you with.

I’m practical, task-oriented and like to problem-solve and work well in a team – happy to follow orders –  or independently, depending on what the job requires. Known for being warm and friendly, I enjoy the company of all types of people and am particularly good with children and teenagers.
