I work with acrylic on canvas and incorporate paper mache to create a 3-diamensional look. More recently I have using dry felted wool as a medium to create unique one-off pieces.
I use re-purposed vintage wool blankets as a canvas and handmake and sew felted images to them...sometimes they include words or affirmations or just a feeling of nostalgia as we all grew up with the “scratchy” wool blanket..attracted to this because there are so many colour variations that were made and I love the vibrancy and energy of colour.
My background is in hospitality and for many years owned cafes and cooked and would go home and “create” as a stress-release..these days I am semi-retired and a lot of my inspiration comes from my love of my surroundings in Laingholm..the bush, the critters and of course colour...
