Artist Statement:

I think of my work as ‘paper daydreams’, semi-autobiographical, playfully drawing on my everyday life as a mother of young children. Small daily actions and encounters feature large in my life, repetition a necessary part of each day. Household objects such as pegs, and children’s play inspire my artwork. Pegs as play – twirling, counting, sorting, clicking, throwing and just looking at pegs amuses my baby daughter just as it did my son.

“Delicates” is a group of work showing me at work and play, daydreaming all the while. Oh look, a rainbow…
