Express Myself


Cornwall has been my home since 1993. Prior to that I lived in London for many years, having left South Africa in my mid-20s. In 2010 I graduated from Plymouth University with a BA (Hons) in Art History. Two years later I was introduced to the world of making art when I participated in a printmaking course at Newlyn School of Art. For four years I was a member of Taking Space, a group of women artists exhibiting in Cornwall. My abstract/stylised work incorporates collage elements such as mulberry paper, plant material, fabric or silver foil. I also experiment with the possibilities of alcohol inks and pouring medium on a variety of surfaces.
