About Me

"We are surrounded by things, we are involved with them. We speak to things and things speak to us. To say we are independent is banal. Let us be courageous, let's admit it : we are lovers".

Worshop was a sucess!!

Had a wonderful time taking the two day workshop here at the Cultural centre King Island. Great food brought in by the locals, King Island clothed smoked Cheddar, smoked lamb, wonderful cakes and quiches. Everyone in the workshop was a hoot! lots of laughing, creativeness, innovations and of course beautiful jewellery made!
It was so nice to meet such a wonderful group of people, more planes have been made to meet while i am here and i cant wait.

King Island, Day 1

Its my first day here on King Island. I am here for four weeks as a part of a Arts Tasmania Cultural Residency. I feel so privileged to be here, as it truly is a remarkable place. My plan while I am here is to develop a new body of work that will be shown at Handmark Gallery (http://www.handmarkgallery.com)  in September this year. I hope that I can use the time to reflect and build upon my current work...... I really need this time because as we all know how consuming everyday activity's of life can be. I need the time to slow down, reflect and resolve allot of idea that are buzzing around my head, and what a place to do it!!
