Welcome to my blog - I am a mixed media artist mainly working in acrylic paint, and adding paper, inks, glitter, impasto, sand, beads, pastels and whatever takes my fancy! I also create watercolour and ink illustrations, which can be bought unframed, and are also made into greeting cards. I take commissions, if you want something that may have already sold, or you would like something original or in another size or colour.

Open Studio 30th October 2016
I will be having an open studio on Sunday 30th October as part of the Queanbeyan Art Trail 2016. Come along and see and or purchase some of my artworks, cards, prints and jewellery that I will have available!! I'll be open 10:00am - 4:00pm.
New....Indian head dress....
I started this mixed media piece by putting the first layers down on the background (actually there were several layers). I had the idea of an indian head dress floating around my mind for quite awhile, so I did a sketch first to get it clearer in my mind. I then just 'went' with the colours of pink, red, oranges and aqua for the feathers....nothing was really planned, I just plodded along. At one point I was really not 'feeling' it, and wanted to just paint over it! However, I perservered and here is the finished product! I ended up making its matching 'pair' that can be hung together or solo. They are both created with acrylic paints, paper, beads, stencils and ink.
