Hello, fellow earthling!

I work with acrylic, ink, watercolour, oil, pencils, pastels, alcohol ink, stamps, linocut, digital drawing, collage, assemblage, textile, embroidery, sewing, paper mache, and clay.

​

I make tender, a bit strange, hand-worn objects and paintings. Each piece is a small offering, a gesture of gratitude, of reflection and connection. I am passionate about creating my own distorted landscapes and populating them with fantastical creatures and surreal artefacts.

All works are responses that I didn't pre-plan; I use an uncontrived, automated approach.  The result is a visual essay presenting displays that engage with questions of femininity, ecology, monstrosity, agency, and temporality.
