soph&son artworks celebrate the perfect imperfection of life .

 

My artmaking is a dedicated daily practice (no exceptions): the activity itself bringing joy, purpose and peace: all essential elements for living my best life.

 

Artmaking is a prism through which I observe and connect as well as a means to experiment, learn and grow, all without judgement and expectation.

 

.The greatest barrier to creativity is fear.


I am self-taught and self-directed, happily rejecting the the concept of perfection. This tenet has liberated my creative process and most importantly invited a celebration of that which is evolving,: that which lives. 

Life is a quality I always seek to capture in my artwork.

 

soph&son was first launched in 2007 - initially a digital fine art and graphic design business located on the leafy outskirts of Naarm (Melbourne, Australia) Wurrudjeri Country. We are now, as of May 2023, resident on Dja Dja Wurrung Country (Hepburnshire) in Central Victoria, thriving in the simpler rural setting, endlessly inspired by the beauty and wonder of the natural world.

I am privileged to share my enthusiasm and approach with other creatives in an ever-evolving program, "Art for Expression and a Better Life", held in the nearby towns of Daylesford and Trentham.
