I was born in the Australian outback town of Mount Isa in North-western Queensland. As one of six children growing up in the remote mining town, we often spent hours exploring the rugged bushland around us, discovering the magic. Despite the heat and flies, I would see the magic and beauty of my surrounding where others may not have. The spectacular colours of sunset skies always held an enchantment for me, and I would wish I could capture that for others to experience.
