My true passion is printmaking. I first fell in love with printmaking at high school when I started exploring screen printing for textiles. This love led to my completion of a Bachelor of Design with honours from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS). My creative curiosity led me to jump from screen-printing textiles to printmaking, and I have spent the last 20 years developing and refining my techniques.
As a member of Willoughby Arts Centre in Sydney for over ten years, I was privileged to be mentored by Roz Keane, a renowned printmaker.
My practice focuses on ‘works on paper’ that explore the textures and colours of the Australian environment through intaglio techniques, collagraphs, cyanotypes and relief printing.
Relocating to the Gold Coast has opened new channels of inspiration, with the local landscape and seascape offering new areas of investigation, particularly in response to our relationship with our country.
