Visual Artist | Studied Visual Arts at Vic Uni, Masters in Life
Teaching art for joy, relaxation and healing.
After finishing my Diploma of Visual Art at Victoria University, I started combining my two big passions, being art (painting, drawing, photographing, printmaking, digital imaging, and mixed media) and self developing strategies including emotional / spiritual well being and meditation.
I enjoy the interaction, and to find the story behind every person through their individual creativity. When I do a one on one session I understand how crucial it is to stay respectful, open minded and flexible. Art is about exploring who we are, while having fun in a relaxed and safe environment. Art contributes to my well being every day, and is something I am passionate about sharing.
About Me
I’m a visual artist who enjoys working with a variety of mediums, like oil painting, photography and digital imaging.
It was only in my early fifties when I decided to pursue a lifelong dream to be an artist, so I completed my visual art degree at Vic University. Having received a scholarship – I travelled to VIU in Vancouver Island, where I completed a semester.
I have been involved in the Hobsons Bay City Council art program called the Artsauce a number of times, and this included introducing different art techniques to the public, catering to individual interests and abilities. I also designed and ran a group mandala workshop for Hobsons Bay Artist Society, which combined art with meditation with a focus on wellbeing through art.
Before that I had a career in fashion, working as a designer and seamstress. I’m passionate about beautiful fabrics, papers, paint and creating something with them.
