Since winning my first poster competition at age seven in Waitara, New Zealand, I’ve been driven by a passion for creating art and the satisfaction of seeing others connect with my work.
I trained in Illustration and Design, specialising in airbrush illustration, and went on to work as a full-time graphic artist in sign shops, design studios, and advertising agencies. Over time, I developed a distinctive style that blends airbrush techniques with modern digital design.
To further refine my craft, I attended advanced workshops in Las Vegas, where I had the privilege of learning from renowned hyperrealism artist Dru Blair.
My work has been recognised with multiple national awards, including first place at the Resene Paints Awards for Murals, as well as two silver medals and a bronze at the National Sign & Display Awards. My murals and Harley-Davidson artwork have also been featured in publications worldwide.
Alongside my professional practice, I’m a qualified Visual Art and Design teacher, which has allowed me to teach and create internationally, including in California, London, Dubai, and Australia.
