Born in Melbourne in 1950, I first studied painting privately with Bill Coleman for four years prior to formal art study in the seventies. After gaining a Diploma of Art and Design (Painting) in 1975 from Prahran CAE (now the Victorian College of the Arts) and a Graduate Diploma of Education in 1977, I moved to Shepparton to teach art in secondary schools for five years, and then on to TAFE Art and Design for a further 25 years.
I have shown paintings, prints and drawings in one-man exhibitions and numerous group shows My work has been purchased for both private and public collections in Australia and overseas.
We would like to pay our respects to the traditional owners of the land on which our building stands, their leaders, past, present and emerging.
