​

I am a multidisciplinary artist working in the Perth Hills of Western Australia. Self taught in my chosen mediums of paper, fibre and fabric, using post consumer waste paper and packaging, sustainable fibres and recycled fabric to create sculptures, woven pieces, wall hangings, and beaded art. 

 

Living on a semi rural property and surrounded by John Forrest National Park and Wooroloo National Park, I draw on the natural world for my main inspiration, with interest in mythical folklore. 

 

Briefly studying Theatre, Arts and Design at Perth Technical College in my teenage years, then using creativity to facilitate literacy and art based programs as a special needs Education Assistant in a Primary School for 12 1/2 years. I  wrote, costume designed and produced assembly performances throughout the different age groups and where possible incorporated the use of recycled materials.

 

Immersing myself in the hills art community, I have been part of the Mundaring Hills Open Studios event for the past three years, exhibiting my collection of sustainable art to both local and international visitors. in my beautiful Wild Cottage studio. 

​

You'll notice that a lot of  pieces are inspired by nature and all it's beauty.  Producing slow art, is both meditative and a mindful process. Our ethos is to reduce,reuse, recycle and repurpose as much as we can, to consciously create and work with purpose and intention. 

​

I am currently working on a body of new work for 2026, a workshop schedule and a book!

My future goals include facilitating workshops and holding small bespoke exhibitions at the Wild Cottage studio.
