In search of Nature Spirits
I have always loved to photograph nature and been fascinated by the colours and patterns you can find in bark, water and rocks.
I have sold my Nature Spirit images at the Long Gallery in Hobart and The Australian Catholic University in Melbourne as part of Bob Brown’s Tarkine in Motion.
The Nature Spirit images are very special to me as I don't come across them very often, despite taking thousands of photographs. Patterns are abundant but images like these are rare. I feel they have a "spirit" that is talking to us.
Foray into fabric
I started printing scarves after a series of serendipitous encounters with a well-known fabric designer.
I have now branched out into soft furnishings and love that people can bring the intricate patterns of nature into their homes. I have been told by friends that my designs create a special energy when placed around a room. I put this down to the magic of Mother Nature and her artistry.
