Split Rock Laura, so fortunate to see this significant cultural site. The Rock art is amazing.

Red beach Weipa

We have just returned from an incredible trip to the northernmost point of the Australian Mainland . Amazingly beautiful Torres strait and everywhere in between. I learnt so much on this trip, how incredible nature is and how fortunate we are that the traditional owners of this land are so willing to share their incredible knowledge with us. I feel very blessed and grateful.

New work on the go

Have started a wire armature for a new bust sculpture. Using beautiful 100percent Australian and NZ  wool. Something different for me. Really just experimenting and having fun. I love the wool is natural biodegradable and renewable. 
 

Positive messages from amazing women

 

These are just a few of the amazing messages that were shared in my last work Gather. Women are always so generous in giving of their time to write a response to participate in the work. I truly value and appreciate their participation. Giving voice to women is an important part of my work. We have the opportunity to make a small difference in each others lives. Encouraging words can make a difference they can lift and shape our connections. 

Exhibition Gather 2025

Thankyou to my friend Susanne for this photo taken at my artist talk. I was so grateful to all those who attended. It was bucketing with rain and I truly appreciated them making such a huge effort to be there. It is always wonderful to be able to see your work come to fruition and others connect with it. My aim is always to give voice to women. My work Gather is about surrounding ourselves with people who lift us up . The women who participated wrote a positive response and many of them told me how they struggled to write the answer. Research has proven that positive words are difficult to recall but negative words are difficult to forget. That's why it is so important that we keep giving one another encouraging, positive words. We have the chance to make a small difference in each others lives. Small gestures can lift and shape our connections. We ourselves rise by lifting others.
