Introduction	Suffice to say I am getting older but not always wiser .My desire is that I might seize the day each day ,a hard thing to do , but a lofty ambition.I studied at Farnham School of Art ( now west surrey school of art and design)from the age of 16 to 20 finishing with a post diploma year in St Ives Cornwall .From that time I found myself travelling a different path as wife and mother to 4 children .After 35 years and the untimely death of my husband,I tentatively picked up my brushes again gradually building up my confidence .Now after 7 years I have begun to sell and exhibit my work in various venues . In 2003/4 I made a courageous journey to beautiful New Zealand and found myself in love the country. As things have turned out it has been there that I have received the most inspiration and appreciation of my work ,selling and exhibiting there with great joy and gratitude
