Mixed media artist. Dabble in all sorts. Lots of abstract. Inks, acrylics, chalk and oil pastels, sometimes all in the same piece. Collage , slow stitching, free motion and digital embroidery , art journalling, junk journals, gel printing , textiles, 3D junk models, upcycling. Try to use recycled, reclaimed and scavenged materials whenever possible. Lots of mindful doodling.Have practiced and taught art in some form for many years since the early 1990s . Had a decade of doing virtually nothing artistic then got started again in 2015 mostly purely for myself. Started sharing art again a few years back in community settings. Artist in residence Hatfield Library Autumn /Winter 2023. Motivated by beneficial effects of art and the outdoors for physical and mental wellbeing. Inspired by the natural world and stories. Forever curious, always thinking.... I wonder what will happen if I do that?
