I am a Textile and Mixed Media Artist creating art in a light-filled studio on the out-skirts of Ngaruawahia in the Waikato, New Zealand

I am married to John and have a daughter, Rachel.

I have always loved art and craft but have only just recently started creating my own pieces of art. 
Starting with quilting I found it hard to follow a pattern without wanting to add my own variations. 
     “I start with fabric and then add anything else that will finish a 
      piece; paint, dye, fibre, glue, beads, buttons and wire. 
      No rules, if it works for me I use it. 
     The current trend of recycling allowed me to follow my love of    
      creating with pre-loved items such as material, clothing and      
      jewellery. 
     These are hidden treasures and I enjoy using various
      techniques to give them new life as art.” 
 
Commissions can be taken, as this art is a great re”tie”rment gift, using ties from the man’s working career.
