Welcome to my World of Art and Creative Endeavour.
ARTIST * DANCER * PERFORMER * CREATRIX
I a multi-disciplined artist, who works across a range of mediums including drawing, painting, design, mixed media, costuming, prop creation, and dance.
I hold a Bachelor of Art Education, and have been teaching professionally via programs and workshops in the visual and creative arts fields for over 28 years.
In 1996 I discovered the world of belly dance and world fusion, which opened up a whole new world of potential for creative expression through dance, movement, costuming, and cross-cultural connection.
My art and dance worlds intersect and collide in multiple ways, with both her visual art work and performances being influenced by nature, history, literature, mythology, art, and culture.
"I believe art and creativity are essential aspects of our humanity. Art provides us with a tool for meditation and personal insight, as well as an alternate lens to view and explore aspects of the world around us."
