ARTIST BIO

Taught by my Croatian father, Vladimir, a wonderful artist, I developed a deep appreciation for creativity and expression at a very young age. As an intuitive artist, I find inspiration in natural elements, allowing my work to flow organically and reflect the beauty of the world around us. Painting is where I feel most connected to myself and the present moment.

My Italian mother also nurtured my creative side, teaching me fine needlework and instilling an appreciation for detail and artistry. Although largely self-taught, I have taken numerous art courses, blending formal techniques with my intuitive approach to create works that resonate on an emotional level.

Alongside my art, I work as a counsellor, combining my intuitive sensibilities to support others on their journeys. I am deeply passionate about human rights, and all profits from my artwork are donated to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre (ASRC) to contribute to this cause. Recently, I completed a series of paintings for intake rooms, designed to provide comfort and hope for those who have experienced PTSD.

When I’m not counselling, you’ll find me in my studio, where I am happiest, immersed in the flow of painting. Through my art and counselling, I aim to inspire hope, healing, and transformation in the lives of others.
