Exhibitions & Workshops
Exhibiting in the Nelson area and country-wide gives me a great opportunity to engage with the public about my art processes. I particularly enjoy the feedback I receive and the exchange of ideas. In addition, teaching techniques have become a new-found love of mine – running classes for up to 12 participants on monoprinting, exploring background techniques (rust dyeing, using resists and discharge dyeing) and creating your own collage elements using a multitude of mediums.

Workshops
Monoprinting with a gelplate
Held a successful class on the 11 April. Will post on here when another one is organised later in the year.
Register your interest in any of the following - dates to be confirmed for 2026
- Creating Collage Elements
This class runs for 2 days and uses some unusual ways of creating texture on bought and found papers, to use as collage elements. The second day you will create a grid of collages using what you have created. No experience necessary.
- Floral Fantasy
A two day course where you will create your own floral fantasy on a canvas. Using wet strength tissue paper and collaged papers (supplied by me), you will have a finished artwork to take home ready to hang at the end of the weekend. No artistic experience necessary.
- Monoprinting using a Gelplate
A one day course introducing you to this very addictive method of printing. No experience necessary.
