About Me

I have been a Visual Artist for all of my adult life and now also enjoy filmmaking. I am passionate about creating visually to draw attention to environmental and social concerns- through artwork, food, film....or any other medium that leads me down the path of sustainability and social awareness. I am involved with Be Spirited by Nature Group who are trying to connect people with Nature. Also I am now consumed by the healing potential of colour, essence and dyeing which have been my latest passion...Celestial Wearable Art "Of the Essence" Healing Coats. I have been studying Celestial Plant Medicine for a number of years with David Crowe and Arjun Das. Correlating and putting together my two passions has been very rewarding and fulfilling with great healing results especially for PTSD. Work is not work when you love what you do, and the handing over a creation which takes about 1 month from start to finish, is such a joy.

chinese artists are coming for sleepovers


Ten days to go before Li Jun and assistant arrive to visit and do workshops here on the Sunny Coast. His chinese brushstroke artworks were fascinating, simplistic yet strong. I just hope the interpreter turns up as well. They are homestaying with me for four nights or so. Artist friend Noela Mills who went to China with me is having them for a couple of nights too. We are excited that they are the beginnings of building our Artist exchange network with China.
