Artist Statement:
My work styles and techniques
vary and are a mixture of:
Textile art/fibre art, mixed
media paintings/collage,
ceramic sculptures, silk
papermaking. I also like to
experiment with different
photo transfer technique's,
dyeing wool and felting it
into art pieces.
Much of my work includes the
process of layering and I get
a good deal of satisfaction
from building up texture. I
love that time has marked,
peeled, rusted and corroded
the surface, similar to the
facade of a old painted wall
or an old relic, creating an
effect that is rich in colour,
texture and history.
Through the use of
multi-layered techniques, I
like to peel back the layers
as if going back through the
passage of time. This provides
contrast and interest and
allows the viewer to explore
the composition past the
immediately obvious central
themes.
When you view the works in my
gallery, you would think it
was the work of 10 different
artists. Which is not exactly
what I am aiming for, it just
happens that way. I strive to
find my own 'voice' or my own
'style', but this is a voyage
of discovery for me and
everyday making art brings me
