My affinity with paper is a memory I have of my mum covering our school books with wallpaper or sometimes newspaper, or whatever was available.

My chosen genre is Collage/MixedMedia, also using materials once used.

No longer using resin as an outside layer, I’m loving the rawness and tactile nature of the paper I use, sometimes making my own.

Usually I gravitate towards a favourite piece or I start with a colour in mind, anything after that happens organically .

My challenge is to use paper to create a new story
