Floating

Freehand paintings and drawings adapted from photos taken by the artist… twigs and leaf litter floating in the waters of Dora Creek.Permaset fabric inks on cotton poplin, 80/20 cotton/polyester batting, pieced and quilted – I’ve been making quilts about Dora Creek for the last twenty-two years (with occasional forays into other themes). However, each new series about the Creek is an opportunity to express myself in a slightly different way – using different techniques. My first pieces were darker in mood and colour. I discharge, paint, monoprint and draw, and use line as a primary element in my work.
