My art is a love affair with colour ,whimsy and life. Acrylic paint is my medium of choice, but I also draw into my paintings with pencils, pens and pastels, and I use collaged paper, fabric and little 3D pieces in many of my works. Currently I see my work as a celebration of life as a wife and mother of four, blissfully creating art in the midst domestic chaos. My images have an innocence about them that is a direct reference to my days watching my children interact and play. Imagination is a huge factor in my works and how frustrating it is as an adult to try and recapture the imagination that is so woven into a child’s life. Small stories or words are often included in my works which lends a childish storybook effect.
