For the last twenty five years, I have been working as a teacher and more recently as a Deputy Principal in a beautiful primary school. Education has always been a very important part of my life. I love encouraging curiosity and the pursuit of what makes us feel alive. I’m living proof that it’s never too late to learn something new, that art and being creative is something we can learn, like any other skill. 

My progression into becoming a passionate Australian abstract floral collage artist has been a fulfilling one,  an endeavour that has scratched my creative itch. How to make use of multiple techniques across colour, pattern, shape, and texture has been a learning experience unlike any other. It is with this renewed sense of creativity and vigour for art that I find myself engaging with the new role of Australian colourful floral artist, one that is not all that seperate to my profession of 25 years but instead inspired by it.
