‘I am a painter, printmaker and designer of textiles. I own a small fabric company called Cloth that I set up more than 25 years ago, because it made sense at the time and still does now.
I live in NSW’s Blue Mountains on Darug and Gundungurra land, where I work with a small team of people who love what they do, making textiles by hand, the old-fashioned way.
I collaborate with others for the joy of making something together that we couldn’t make alone.
A big part of what I do these days involves running collaborative art projects geared to support mental health by helping people develop a creative practice.
I take commissions and I exhibit. My favourite place to be is working in my studio. Or pottering about the garden.
I’ve written a book and a manifesto to live by.’
