I have been creating art for as long as I remember, and have been teaching techniques for more than 20 years.
Although originally working with pencil and acrylics, I discovered a love for collage six years ago, when I started experimenting with adding receipts, newspaper articles and historical information into my seaside collage art.
From there, my style gradually developed into my current, punk versions of tarot archetypes - twisting vintage cold-war era magazines into making something new.
The beautiful part of collage is being able to juxtapose the materials you are using to create something entirely different and unique.
My art has been exhibited at galleries across the country, and I hope to share the love I have for creating these pieces with you - inspiring you to make your art pieces into your own story.
