My work is surreal,unique,often not understood or appreciated by conventional installation centred galleries. I use acrylics, make up, ink, pencil, pen, collage, whatever i feel is right for the work, never do prelim sketches it tires the idea, and call on my unique and fantastic imagination to conjure up self portraits with 40s actress hedy lamarr who i look like with mini versions in our hair, women with women as hair, victorian men with hidden heads and duck feet and manwoman combinations. I am my art and its very me.
Education- BA HONS 2:1 Liverpool john moores university, 93-96, 4 A levels inc media studies- storyboarding and photography, and 11 GCSEs inc Art and Textiles.
