I'm a mixed media artist living & working in Perth, Western Australia. Others (paper mosaics, origami & tattooing leather for example) � not so much.
I love incorporating natural and recycled materials in my pieces, particularly fabric, but anything a bit different will inspire. Painting on silk with coffee, timber with beer, and on canvas with sand are just some of my successful experiments.
