Learning to work with colour and its interactions is a never-ending challenge and curiosity for me.
Working in both the mediums of Mosaic and Textile gives me the latitude for colour play and exploration. I love Mosaic as it is bright, durable and looks good indoors and out, it is a beautiful marriage of function and art. My current work in textiles and stitch is a process of layering different fabrics, incorporating paper, plastic, anything in fact that can be stitched I will use until the right depth and feel for the colour of the piece is complete.
I completed a mosaic course at the Mosaic Art School in Ravenna (Italy) in 2002, under the direction of Luciana Notturni. Luciana is one of the few master mosaicists in the world allowed to restore old masterpieces. Although based on traditional techniques the course inspired me to develop my own pieces using glass, smalti, tile and marble, and reinforced my confidence in the use of colour.
