I am an artist and illustrator with more than 25 years experience. After studying illustration at Gerrit Rietveld Academie in the Holland, I returned to Australia to build a body of work in children’s book illustration, collage, sculpture and writing. Based in Melbourne Australia, I am well known for my enthusiastic, informative and humorous approach to workshops with children and adults. I have had a career-long commitment to using recycled materials in my work, and strive to find the beauty in the crushed and discarded.
