ingapore is the country where
I was born. I now live in
Mount Isa (in Queensland)
where I work as a Veterinarian.

I have not received any formal art
training. I started Chinese Painting
classes as a child (from about
10 years of age) for a couple of

I had to keep up with my cousin in
a bit of friendly family rivalry! She
learnt piano, so I learnt piano; she
did ballet, so I had to do ballet.

I started attending some art
classes here in Mount Isa. The
classes were run by local artists Rick
and Patricia D’Arcy in September- I learnt basic concepts like
the colour wheel, how to use focal
points, how the eye actually does
a lot of the work in colour mixing
for the artist (in Pointillism, for
example), and how to use a mirror
