​My work as a fibre artist working with fabric and fibre to create abstract 3-dimensional forms was my focus for many years. I started painting full time in 2009 focusing on portrait/figure work painting in acrylics, watercolours and mixed media.

Fractured Angels is the continuous thread throughout my work. My art parallels my spiritual journey and I identify with the flawed, cracked and fractured human yearning for peace and fulfillment. The older I get the stronger the pull to explore and express this theme in my work. 

Along the way I discovered I loved teaching. I find the creative process so incredibly interesting. My energy lies in that process and to share that with others has been the most fulfilling role of my life. The spiritual nature of the creative process is something that I think about a lot. The idea of constant practicing of my craft along with allowing myself to let go in moments of creating is the key to authentic art.

I am a lifetime student and my vehicle is art.

Mixed Media Re-Visited

I love mixed media and I experiment and discovered some very cool and mysterious techniques that I would love to share with students.
I will show you everything I know about working with linseed oil, graphite, charcoal, a few acrylics, watercolours, gesso , pastels, and plaster (Joint compound). We will work on collage using vintage book pages image transfer techniques.

We will create multiple pieces-collage with stitched embellishments, photo portraits using paint, charcoal and pastels and stitching, handmade books for our mixed media experiments.

​The emphasis is on expression and texture.
