Proudly Featuring the Beautiful work of Artist

"Penelope"

 

My interest in art is far away from landscapes as such. I am interested in the expression of people. I feel I have created modern icons: they are fun and meaningful. I see my art as a tonic, a medicine that works on visual response. It gives pleasure with its colour and messages.

I create figurative landscapes. They reach out to every person with their quirky pop art sense.

In 1992 I began selling my art at the weekend cultural markets in Perth. I've recently restored and painted 500 year old icons in Churches located on the island of Corfu, Greece as a gift for the local people. I returned to Australia in 1998 and soon after relocated to the Fremantle markets where I was selling my art work prints and other pieces such as handpainted frames and furniture every weekend. After working on large life-size pieces in Greece I felt compelled to have an exhibtion and present myself as a painter. I want people to recognise me as who I really am, not who they think I am. "The Goddess Speaks" is an extension of myself and every other womans dreams and fantasies. Its about exploring womanhood.
