About me

Industry Arts
Occupation Mother, teacher, artist
Location Brisbane, QLD, Australia
Introduction I love to work with my hands and have learnt a lot of arts throughout my life. My earliest experiences are playing with paper, making textures with my crayons, sewing dolls clothes by hand, crocheting, embroidery and cooking. I have taught papermaking and bookbinding workshops and paper crafts for kids holiday workshops. I am currently expanding my range of workshops to include mixed media.
Interests Mixed Media, until recently I didn't know it had a name. I just thought I was eclectic and couldn't make up my mind. Now I know there is a name for people like me and that is Mixed Media. So I like to paint, collage, sew or embroider, play with buttons and generally love paper I can put it all together in the form of book art. I will be posting a project soon titled "What Katy Did Next" removable pages notebook.
Favorite Movies Gone with the wind
Favorite Music A mixture of classical and old rock like 104.5Fm or ABC 106.1. I think it makes me a special kind of old growing up in the 70's.
Favorite Books Revisiting an old favourite "What Katy Did Next". Whatch out for book-art inspired by her coming your way.
