I have worked across many different mediums. I choose the medium and material that best suits the clients brief and my concept.
My works are scalable and suitable for all types of outdoor and indoor applications, from small private courtyards to large public spaces. I enjoy the challenge of working on a large scale with a team of people and always aspire to create works that involve and inspire the audience on a most personal and intimate level.
The tactile nature of my work invites and allows people to explore with their eyes and their hands. Children especially respond to my work. They enjoy the freedom to touch and interact with the works.
I draw inspiration from exciting travels with my husband and daughter and from past experiences I have had during my different many career paths.
My works are heavily inspired by collections of sentimental objects, capturing moments in time and special memories of days spent with family and friends.
I am constantly blown away by the awe encompassing power of Mother Nature and often create environmentally themed art in response to natural events around the world.
