Creating has always been a part of my life and I have explored many different forms of arts and crafts over the years including sewing, resin, pottery and weaving. Originally, I started painting in watercolour, learning from a local Wollongong artist and engaging in some "me" time away from the busyness of family life and work. As I started to explore other mediums, acrylics became the new favourite and I have been playing and learning with this medium over the last few years. I have worked in education over many years including primary Special Education settings, high school wellbeing programs and the tertiary sector.
