Peggy has had a lifetime interest in art but raising a family and a demanding career meant her art practice was put on hold. Instead, she turned her hand to photography.
After retiring, when looking through the camera lens, she felt the need to paint and draw what she saw.
Having lived in rural areas for most of her life and travelling to remote areas of Australia, Peggy has developed a kinship with the Australian landscape and its native flora and fauna. This kinship is the basis of her art. The beauty of the Australian landscapes and its wildlife and wildflowers provides the artist with unlimited subject matter.
Over time she has explored various mediums and techniques to recreate the mood and beauty of her subjects.
Most recently Peggy has been enjoying working with ink pens to create floral still life drawings.
The artist lives and works in Laurieton.
