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.

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.

I loved the creativity of working with different fabrics and textures during my career, and my love for fabrics, especially natural cottons drives me back to sewing this year. 2020 has brought big changes in our lives, and it has become obvious to me that I need to sit down at my machine again to do what I believe is my calling this time.

It is very sad we have to cover our beautiful faces, but it’s understandable why we have to do it. With my work of these masks I want to reduce our pain, to wear a nice piece. As one of my friend said to me, my mask is a “masterpiece”. It is my contribution to the problem.
