ican do spring

this weekend I took my prints to the exhibition and demonstration. I spent the 2 days completing dyed samples of silk and cotton pieces. I used the cold water wax to do the resists and just kept adding colours getting a bit stronger each time. I love to do this. I also added some bright dyes to some old cotton doilies. the will be left for quite sometime now before il rinse them off. Gradually I'll finish off all the half started pieces and then see what I'll do with them, probably sell them to other artists and creative types at ican. I didn't sell any prints this time but many people looked at the framed works and looked through the folders.

Welcome to my blogspot

Welcome to my Blogspot


G’Day
I’m a sculptor, printmaker and textile artist. My passion is to draw and to make things. I create installations. I make artist books. I work with cast aluminium and bronze.

Printmaking
I like to print onto anything, mostly onto paper and fabrics. I use photopolymer etching and monotype.

Textiles
Dyeing silk and cotton, wool and any yarn and knitting and crocheting.

Artist Books
Creating books from paper, wood fabric and plastic. Some very tiny and some quite large, some in bags, some in boxes, others are collections of past drawings or rearranged photos.

Studio
I belong to BARRACKS ART STUDIOS THIRROUL on the eastern coast of NSW, Australia.

Environment
Use less, waste less, reuse everything, reduce waste, and work with less-toxic materials.

I hope you enjoy visiting my blog site.
