Artist Statement:
My attitude to my work can
only be described as extreme.
As a young girl I was haunted
with paintings in my head. Now
in the centre of my life I
love them, live them, make
them, embrace and share them.


‘Nostalgic threads in paint
and objects evoke a sense of
spirit and place as the artist
weaves a narrative in the
in-between of half-remembered
stories and the strangely
familiar’

I am a dedicated art
practitioner of 15 years with
experience in gallery and
studio practice, facilitation,
teaching and commissions for
public and private art in
mosaic, assemblage and
sculpture. I work in oil
glazes, acrylics and mixed
media on canvas.

The latest series ‘drawing
with objects’ combines media &
assemblage of salvaged
materials and memorabilia on
traditional painting grounds.
For me it represents a synergy
of my traditional painting
practices fused with the
object as a site of memory.
This is my story of place,
time and history that allows
me to combine my diverse
strengths of genre together
with gatherings and
collectings of found and
salvaged materials and
memorabilia.

Education:
