Interview with IndieLove Magazine
When was it that you decided that
being an artist was your calling?
Yesterday. True! I graduated from
the Queensland College of Art in 2002 as one of many fresh-faced graphic
designers. As the years went on, the briefs came in, the changes, and changes,
and late nights, and more changes, and the all-nighters, more changes and then
having my creative ideas smooshed, I decided that maybe being a graphic
designer was a bit soul destroying. So I painted and created as an outlet.
I showed my work when I lived in
China and had sell-out shows. When I moved home to Brisbane I thought I had to
become a grown-up. Buy a house, settle down, procreate - all those
picket-fence, 2.5 kids ideals. Silly me. I worked my tail off as a designer for
a company that ended up making me redundant, one week before I was due back
from maternity leave. It was an amazing blessing. It gave me the time,
creativity and freedom to put everything I had into a solo show at Jugglers
earlier this year. In my eyes, it was a massive success. I am entirely proud.
Since that show I’ve had so many
opportunities become available for me to truly do what I believe is my calling
- art. Yesterday was the first spare second I’ve had to sit down and think ‘oh
my, everything is falling into place. I’m entirely happy, grateful and I feel
like the real me. The universe is working with me and right here and now is
where I am meant to be.’ This is that happiness that everyone has been talking
about! Huh!
