My work explores this simple way of seeing the world with a specific focus on the beauty of the small and overlooked marine life found washed up along our shoreline. These paintings and drawings, of the unremarkable along the tidal edges in Geographe Bay, are inspired by my memories of a childhood living beside the beach in another place and time. They aim to remember a child-like attitude, to paint and draw the things underfoot and immediately before me, as a child would experience it. They are small, simple offerings recreating a child’s sense of curiosity and wonder.
