Stitching by hand is a meditative process connecting me to my matrilineal heritage. This Mother’s Day I muse on stitching and my mother.

Where is home? Is it a place, bricks & mortar or a notion you carry within you, transportable, a place to hang your hat.
Red Centre
A journey to the ‘other’ rock, Mt Connor, in the heart of Australia’s red centre.
Blueprints
Writing new narratives for change with a series of post colonial blueprints or cyanotypes created during my artist residency in central Australia

A desert interlude in Curtain Springs, central Australia for a papermaking residency allows me time to ponder my footprints upon the red earth and how we honour this life of ours.

Success (or failure)
When you finish a big art project, how do you measure success (or failure)? Its can be a vicious cycle of ups and downs for artists.
A Café somewhere/anywhere
Where do you go when you want to travel? To a café of course to watch the world go by, get inspired and make art.
Endings (and beginnings)
One art project finished and perhaps another beginning. On route to Townsville to connect with flood affected artists in far north Queensland.
Styling
Finding a style that you feel conveys your spirit, who you are, how you meet life. When you find it, embrace it. Your style has found you.
