I made this body of work in my first year of my bachelor degree for 2D Contemporary Art, for this work we had to use three aspects of things we had learnt during the class. I decided to print a pinhole photograph that I took onto some paint skins to represent different times of the day at Light Square. I really enjoyed this piece because it gave me a chance to use different skills I had learnt from the class and Light Square is on of my favourite places in the city.

Grace, 2018 This is the on of the first artworks I made during during my bachelor degree at the University of South Australia. I made this work for my class 3D Contemporary Art in where I got my first ever real experiences working with materials other them paint. For this work we had to made something that had a hole and a lump. I main really just wanted to make a face into an artwork as we had learnt it earlier in the class and I really wanted to try it. I also thought the idea of flowers with a tomb stone like face reminded me of timeless peace and that is something that I wanted.
I created this work for my year 12 Visual Art class. When I begun this idea I just wanted to do an artwork with melting crayons because it had been quite the trend. Yet once I had started it did not really go right, the crayons mixed together and turned muddy but I liked the affect. I started to be able to see faces pop out of the canvas and that is where I got the idea to keep a female figure (me) at the bottom. I wanted this work to represent my anxiety and how it can mud up my life sometimes.
I created this artwork for my year 12 Creative Art class. I titled this work Eye Don't Know because I really don't know why I made this piece, other then I needed another piece of art for my project. I really just combine a bunch of aspects of art that I wanted to try into one painting. I wanted to use book pages in an artwork, I wanted to use a sponge and I wanted to try to paint a crying eye. Oddly enough I really like this artwork as it was truly what I wanted to do at the time. I am trying to employ aspect of this into my practice now but have it more guided by prompts and research.
I made this artwork for my year 12 Visual Art class. At the time Donald Trump and the Wall he planned to build was very topical, I wanted to make a work in response to the situation. The idea was to paint a section of the wall and show how it would look like by the year 2020. I used three methods of painting as I painted the main canvas with acrylic, I painted the posters with watercolour and them I spray painted some graffiti on top of the acrylic.
I made this artwork for my year 12 Creative Art class. At the time I just really wanted to make an map artwork as I had a major interest in maps. I ended up deciding to make a map of Australia out of coloured pencils because I didn't want to simply draw the map but I wanted to push the boundaries of what an artist does with pencils.
Achievement For All, 2015 Myself and a group of four other girls were assigned a space within the art building of Paralowie R-12 School. My group was not very helpful (being a bunch of high-schoolers who only did art because they thought it was meant easy) and I ended up painting the whole mural pretty much by myself. This was a major project for me and I found it terrifying as I am not really a painter. Overly I think this is an area I would like to retouch on later in my art career as I learn and grow.
