As with everything in life, things change, and life moves on.

After years of teaching, Covid changed our world drastically, and so, this chapter has drawn to a close.

By God’s grace, I am still around and making Art, albeit a little differently.

Making paper and books has been my passion for a long time and I am learning more every day.

Out of necessity, I began using whatever materials I could find to create painting surfaces and stumbled across something that works really well and is fun to make.

Since I am no longer teaching, I have been dabbling in many different art forms.

I still paint (especially in my Art journals) but I have also been looking at various printing methods.

Leaving a large equipped studio behind has forced me to be a little more resourceful in acquiring ways to do things. I recently discovered that a Pasta Maker makes an awesome press for small etchings (not to mention the silver inside of juice cartons for plates!)

It has been quite the journey exploring different arty things and I am thoroughly enjoying it when I am not working to earn a living.

I have been extremely blessed to be able to work from home with my hubby, so I am able to make time for my work, my art and my musical quests.

My homemade Junk Art journals are getting made and filled to my heart’s content, and now they have been discovered by friends and fellow artists and have become a wonderful and welcome source of income.
