Hi! I’m Bernadette, artist and educator.

Thanks to my dad’s picture-framing business, I grew up surrounded by art. My childhood obsession with creating naturally led me to art school, where my passion deepened.

Art is more than what I do—it’s who I am. Through my work, I strive to capture and express the endless beauty that surrounds us.

With over 90 exhibitions and multiple awards across Australia, the UK, the USA, and Europe, I’ve spent decades refining my craft. 

For over 38 years, I’ve helped people of all ages and skill levels unlock their creativity through art, photography, and design.

Now, I’d love to help YOU—are you ready to begin?

Colour Psychology Essentials

A guide to the emotions and meanings of colour.

Colour is more than just a visual element—it’s an emotional language, shaping how we perceive and respond to the world around us.

As an artist, understanding the psychology of colour empowers you to create work that speaks on a deeper level, evoking moods, telling stories, and resonating with your audience in profound ways.

This short guide will inspire you to use colour thoughtfully, without bogging you down with unnecessary theory.
