I am an artist and printmaker deeply inspired by nature and the ever-changing seasons. Currently, my work is focused on exploring the Porter Valley, with particular attention to its woodlands and the flowing river that shapes the landscape. Teaching plays a vital role in supporting my creative practice, providing me with the opportunity to share my passion for printmaking with others. From my ground-floor art studio in Greystones, I am thrilled to offer my expertise in relief, intaglio, and planographic printmaking techniques, fostering creativity and skill in those eager to learn.
