Since the age of five I have covered my school books with wallpaper or anything I could cut up and stick on, this is where my love of paper began.
​
My work is described as collage/Mixed Media. I like to manipulate the background papers so they have a new story to tell. My belief is to 'use what is available', nothing is unusable!
Flowers/nature are a relevant element to my works of late as with the destruction and chaos of the past few Year, nature carries on and so must life.
​
These are my own photographs that I taken whilst out walking, I then process them through a computer programme, have them printed out and then hand cut each out.
Once cut, I place them on top of the collaged backgrounds and later pour a coat of resin.
Sealed and protected for a new journey.
