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.

Culture 2 Culture workshop with Kevin Grealy


Saturday Kevin and I were down at the Chinese Midway Exhibition at Caloundra Regional Gallery doing a "drop in" workshop with the community. The small domino size tiles are for a Culture 2 Culture collaborative exhibition connecting the Sunshine Coast with our friendship/sister cities in China. An artist friend and myself are travelling to China in November to network with artists in Jingdehzen, Xiamen and Wu Shi. During the time we are there we will be taking a children's print exhibition and do collaborative pieces such as the "domino" piece during our travels. They will be then pieced together with a textile piece to be hung at Gary Myers Gallery in 2012.
