I love to make and have spent my whole life making craft projects and art. My woodblock prints are never complete until they have been drawn, painted, or sewn on.

I work from home on the weekends and print using a rolling pin because I don’t have a press.

My ’studio’ is a big room in our house, which looks out to our walnut tree and the Wairarapa, New Zealand landscape. I like to create mixed media works, my prints are a starting point for drawing, painting, stamping, and painting.

People tell me my work looks homemade, or like something from a vintage craft magazine, which I take that as a compliment. I’m inspired by New Zealand, the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. I love vintage, homemade things, wallpaper, the New Zealand landscape, birds and plants.

My formal qualifications:
Bachelor of Fine Arts (Printmaking) 1999
Post Graduate diploma in Museum Studies 2000
