Artist Statement

I’m still in the stages of exploring different medias and styles in my work. For now it’s all about experimenting and learning about what works for me. Because of this my work doesn’t always seem to fit together as a whole. I seem to take leaps and bounds from one style to another, moving along to satisfy my new tastes.
When I started out it was just simple mimicry on a canvas, but in the past few years my artistic spectrum has broadened to include fibre arts. I’ve fallen for the craft of creating cloth from raw materials. I enjoy the feeling of being close to my work.
Recently I’ve been drawn back to my love of theatre, I’ve always loved the stories that are told there. It has inspired a lot of my works before and I have been thinking of using my newfound skills to try and work in the theatre, creating sets and costumes. The thought of being able to create a part of those beloved stories raises my spirits.
