I live in an adobe house on the foothills of Atawahi, Nelson (Top of the South Island), New Zealand overlooking the Nelson Haven and Tasman Bay.
​ 
The Nelson Tasman region is home to a vibrant arts community and is surrounded three national parks.
My studio space is at the centre of our home. 
Designed together with my partner and constructed from local clay adobe blocks that capture energy from the sun.  
​Every time I enter the studio I feel embraced by its warmth, soft rendered walls, natural light, garden access and a slither of the view of Tasman Bay.

Lovely space you have and I'm guessing an equally lovely setting. Warm, cheerful feeling.

Thank you Kay, it is special place in every way. Especially when I have the opportunity to share it with other creatives.

A sweet place to work and I love that it is the centre of your house. Love the drying rack and seeing some of your fantastic space. Thank you for sharing.

    Studio spaces

    Over the next few months there will be an email come into your box on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings.
    It will be an artist’s studio.. a sanctuary for a creative.. with a short comment from the artist and things that they could not live without.
    Links will lead you to the workshop page where these creatives will teach for
    Fibre Arts Australia or to their social media links.

    Another initiative to keep us in touch from the Fibre Arts Team.
