Sulfur Crested Cockatoo

The sulphur-crested cockatoo is a bold and charismatic presence in our Australian treetops — loud, intelligent and full of personality. I wanted to capture that moment of alert curiosity, with its bright yellow crest lifted against crisp white feathers. This piece celebrates the playful spirit and striking beauty of a bird we hear long before we see.

After exhibiting Shared Spaces earlier this year at Rusten House Gallery, a few of my favourite works have returned home to the studio. 

Shared Spaces: The Wildlife Next Door highlights the native birds and animals that quietly visit our gardens, perch on fences, or pass through the bush at the edge of town. These encounters remind us that we are not separate from nature — we share our spaces with it.

Through this series of acrylic paintings on canvas, I hope to spark a sense of wonder and awareness about the wildlife just outside our doors, and encourage a culture of care and curiosity in the next generation.

I’m now offering these select pieces directly from my studio — a rare opportunity for collectors who connected with the exhibition but missed out at the time.
