Hayley is an intuitive and tactile painter. She has vast experience painting live at events and creating personalised commissions for many. Hayley has run a variety of workshops focused on abstract art and the therapeutic benefits of creativity and expression. She has been a guest speaker at the events she paints at and has engaged in creative writing based on the artwork she creates. As a child, Hayley loved art and to be creative. She took art subjects through school and by her final year, felt as though she could not achieve her dreams to become an artist as she compared herself to those around her. She continued to doodle with art very modestly until almost a decade later, when she pulled out her old paints from school. She began to paint without plan and squeezed colour straight from a tube. In this moment she was reminded of the freedom and exhilaration painting bought her. Not only that, she had discovered a new way of unplanned painting which ignited her soul.

In 2012, at the beginning of her career, she won People’s Choice Award at the 'Art and Soul' exhibition held at Tabor College, Adelaide and in 2013 she was selected with  a small group of artists to paint live in a park for closing celebrations of the festival along with displaying her works in a pop up gallery on location. In 2016, Hayley wrote and presented a paper on the topic of art and spirituality at the Australian Catholic University and has since painted and shared in seminars encouraging high school students in their gifting. In 2017 her first solo exhibition was hosted by the well renowned restaurant 1918 in the Barossa Valley, where she alsoshe painted live during a dinner service.From 2013 - 2018 she participated in the South Australian Living Artists festival annually, displaying her work at several locations each year.. 

Today, Hayley paints to bring life to the people and spaces she encounters. She hopes to bring out a sense of freedom and creativity in others by the way she paints spontaneously and with encouraging intention.​

Hayley is inspired by light, nature, soul and spirituality. She enjoys painting with bright colours and metallic highlights although her more recent work is inspired by her passion for the environment and recycling. She is influenced by reusing materials to use as a surface or create texture.

Hayley says she believes that unlocking her creativity has opened up life in a way she had not dreamed: “I amexcited to share this journey and believe that others can also find great joy in uncovering their passions laying dormant.”

Hayley has travelled the world and shared her passion for creating, particularly with children, in the places she has visited. She has undertaken studies in ministry, culture and fine arts. She intends to open more opportunities to share her gifts by studying art therapy and life couching to couple with her artistic skill.
