Before graduating in Fine Arts & Education, at a mature age, I had success as a self-taught oil painter.
I believe that creativity stems from excellent drawing skills. I honed my skill and ran adult classes at a community centre, a gallery & at home, promoting this proficiency.
Recently my aptitude turns towards manipulating textiles, wool, wire and clay. I love sculpture, though the circle always turns me back to sketching, including needle & thread used as a drawing tool. I work with mixed media. I have won prizes in many of these areas and exhibit work regularly.
