I am an Australian artist with a background in both science and art, and have been consistently exhibiting since 2002. I relocated to a coastal town surrounded by rainforest and this has influenced the latest series of artworks, "Symbiosis". The works are highly detailed abstract and surreal paintings made with ink and acrylic on canvas, and explore the spiritual and physical connections between man and nature throughout time.

His art has been presented through 14 solo exhibitions and ~70 group exhibitions in Australia and internationally since 2003, and his work explores the interface of art and science and the integral connections between humans and the natural world. The major theme is exploring the nature of change, and in turn the changes in nature.
