I first became fascinated with batik at school where I discovered
its unique 'magic'.

Since then I have gone
on to explore many art forms and techniques. I am a qualified teacher
of many years and I still work part-time.
I have a degree in Textiles, and an MA in Fine Art. Although I also
produce works in painting, mixed media and ceramics, textiles,
especially batik, still occupies much of my art work. Evidence
of my explorations
in batik can be seen at my Mezzanine Gallery in Stackpole, Pembrokeshire.
During the summer months It is open to the public every Saturday
(all
other days
by appointment).

At present I teach Textiles as part of Trinity College creative
outreach programme. I have exhibited widely in many selected
exhibitions.
I am now producing a series of quilts with my students for an
exhibition
this spring as part of the Carmarthen Museum programme. Although
these quilts were inspired by welsh design,s I have also incorporated
some
batik techniques into their production.
