- About my artwork
- I am creating mixed media pieces that are not quite paintings, are not quite prints and involve a good bit of sewing. I am very interested in using materials that are not typically qualified as 'art' materials and then using them as a painter would use oils.
- The centre of the artworld is
- nowhere and everywhere
