My hands have never been pretty hands, but they've always been great tools!
I've enjoyed creating all my life, for pleasure, out of need, for gifts, teaching others, using all types of materials and methods. Sometimes life becomes busy, serious and intense...it's often at these moments that I develop "itchy fingers"...a deep internal longing to create. Making space in my life to be able to create brings me great satisfaction and pleasure.

I especially love creating something beautiful out of discarded items, my favourite having been artworks out of used tea bags. More recently it's wall art from discarded pallets. The view from my kitchen window is stacks of pallets that my neighbour is collecting for firewood. The more I looked at them, the more possibilities I saw, until my itchy fingers just had to get creating!
