Editor at Liberal Eclectic
Coolum Beach, Australia
Liberal eclectic is a website dedicated to architecture, art, interior design and café culture. Following a completion of a Masters (Hons) in art history (by definition also included architectural history), I embarked on a career as an art consultant and writer in Auckland NZ - respectively, the dealer galleries Ferner Galleries and Sanderson Contemporary.
Due to close links and relationships with artists and the gallery programmes, an art writing pedigree developed from the many press releases, art brochures and articles about art and artists that were required as part of the job. As a consequence I have strong and intuitive descriptive abilities across myriad contexts, for example, formal, social, historic and psychological in both art and architecture. Above all I am motivated by passion for the above subject areas and because of that I want to promote them positively.
