Over the past twenty something years I have “played” with acrylics, inks, rattle cans
                                       and encaustic wax to name but a few.  There is something magical about making
                                                  marks with scrapers, brushes and impromptu tools and applications.

                                        The whole point for me is about having fun; the “zone, flow”  call it what you will
                                        is a fantastic place to be, calming, soothing, occasionally frustrating, but always
                                                                             enjoyable, ‘my studio, my sanctuary’.

                                         prints, t-shirts and greeting cards I felt I was making progress and I have found
                                    building relationships with galleries interesting and a subject in itself. I have recently
                                     been asked to join a local group (DART – Disley Arts and Recreation Together) the
                                   aim of which is to hold Community Together events to bring arts and crafts to a wider
                                          audience, my own role being demonstrations of paint effects and techniques.
                                                                                        The journey continues ....
