I am an active member of the printmakers collective, The Printing Girls, who have been invaluable in my self-directed education as printmaker and textile artist. 

 

I have participated in group exhibitions at David Krut Projects, Gallery 2, White River Gallery, the Association of Arts Pretoria, Stilbaai Gallery and The Art Room.

 

The skills and knowledge from my earlier career I use to assist specifically artists and other creatives who want to learn about tax; and I offer admin and operational support tailored to their specific needs.

My work includes original prints, artists' books and textile art. My practice is mostly manual and exclusively home-studio based where I screenprint, create monotypes and cyanotypes, use a sewing machine and handsew. Home is both the literal and figurative place where my work is born. 

 

Using text in my work comes from my life-long love of books and the libraries where I grew up. And all my work connects to text in some way, whether a word, phrase, poem, or a book.

 

The colour blue reminds me of water and the calm that I find when I am held in the quiet. Blue is also a reminder of the ongoing reality of living with ill health.
