I thankfully discovered the world of stamp arts which opened up to me paper arts, and book-making which guided me to many passions in mixed media. I have found tremendous joy and satisfaction in stamp carving, and art journaling (which I do almost daily). My other joyful explorations have been collage on canvas, acrylic painting on canvas, quilting, and quilted books. I also satisfy the folk artist within me with primitive rug hooking, and wool needle felting & applique.
After all my creative experiences I can honestly say stamping is my first and true love. I tell my kids "Life is all about stamping!" a metaphor of course but for me it's true.
My art is featured in Jane Davies latest book
"Adventures in Mixed Media" and her previous book "Collage Journeys".
I have written several articles for Art Journaling magazine by Somerset Studio and have over 35 items published in art magazines, from The Stamper’s Sampler to the popular Somerset Studio, with some of my pieces in their Gallery Editions II, III and IV. In 2001 my art gained the cover of The Rubber Stamper which has now become Crafts n Things.
