“I work in layers so I love using stencils in my art, I find that
they can transform a piece that needs sparking up, or provide more mystery.
Using them with Gelli Art plates to create the basis and enhancement of monoprints is also a way to get the creative juices going. Recently I have been
using stencils to create texture plates for use with mono prints and to bring
texture and life to my paintings.
StencilGirl products have a huge range and I can always find one that
is just what I was looking for or one that can spark a new work or
thought. My students find them
intriguing and easy to use so they are a great asset in my workshops."

Her contemporary series are gateways into another world where
subject matter from different sources are drawn together. Colour, texture and
multi imagery are used to produce works that are evocative of place and time.
Drawing on texts, symbols, handwriting and painting techniques, these paintings
have a life of their own. Themes include exotic gardens, history, literature,
abstract landscape all subjects close to the artist's heart. She enjoys exploring different techniques and
subject matter to keep the creative spirit going.

private tuition and master classes.
Incorporating acrylics crayons,
