This was a moment of standing on the beach, almost ready to turn and climb up the steep steps and go home on a day at the end of Summer, as the weather changed from hot and calm to cool and windy. The tide came in and covered the reef that can usually be seen from the beach. It is a favourite fishing spot near Beachport in South Australia. It is a section of what has been a treacherous coast line with many shipwrecks scattered all the way along to Queenscliff in Victoria. I took many images, made some sketches and felt it had to be a pastel drawing. I wanted the strength of the pigment and my drawing and the blending of these pigments to allow the ocean to move towards me rather than brushstrokes which seemed distracting to me. Clouds and the changing sky continue to fascinate me and I find myself being more influenced from researching Constable and Turner than I would have expected I would be not that many years ago. The paper is rich apricot to add the warmth of the late Summer change. It has been very hot day with a strong sudden cold front coming. This work is matted and framed in simple white grain board with washed white wooden frame. the most common comments from people viewing it is that there is a real sense of the ocean moving toward them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480260037-G48TW5BTXRHMVV8YUYUC/Art+Installation+using+one+colour+.jpg my work - Stories of Red, Colour Intervention Art Installation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480309244-RP9TPJ6MTSXQIVP517H0/Broken+Soul+fb.jpg my work - Broken Soul, Machine Stitched Drawing and Hand Embroided Art Textile This work was a response to mental health issues, because I have heard much about the affects of mental health over the last few years and it is an issue that has become very topical for our region, as it has throughout developed societies. The free motion machine drawing is based on a pen and ink life drawing I had done on paper. I translated this drawing freely by observing my original work on the wall in front of me. The original drawing is on a full size A1 drawing paper and so this had to be a spontaneous transcription. It is also done without taking the needle out of the fabric, it is continuous line work, so a true drawing in every sense. The thread and needle become my drawing tool and fabric becomes my canvas. This drawing was first completed using my machine, then painted and hand embroidered and silk appliqué added in a collage technique. My idea was about the soul becoming broken by having to cope with the impact of behaviour and the consequences from those you love with mental health problems. This is why I have not completed the full figure in machine stitching and used hand stitches to emphasise the thought of being broken apart. The blue is symbolic and represents the grief this person is feeling. There are fragments of appliquéd and collaged silk georgette to represent the fragile state that this person is trying to cope with. I have hinted through my drawing that this is a woman (and my original life work is of a woman) because it is generally women that suffer most from this grief. A viewer may interpret this in a number of ways, it is very contemplative and soul searching work. It could be that this person has lost a love one and is grieving, or has to face something very difficult. I have also intended that there is hope in that the machine stitching is in black thread, strong and deliberate and that although this image is of a Broken Soul there is an intention through strength that she will survive and be strong. It is the moment that some or many of us have felt, that we can no longer go on we feel broken and exhausted, and then something seems to pull us through and we survive. The work is then stretched and laced using linen thread and backed and mounted before framing   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480122033-RB651135B5HIBRITQYS2/DSC06006.jpg my work - Coast, Arial View, Coorong Coast South Australia, Mixed Media, Machine & Hand Embroidered Collage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480083260-D1OS7BLNQGWYDFPTM3B0/Pear+Collage+completed.jpg my work - Pear with Light Summer Sweets, Mixed Media Collage and Stitching on Card. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480014605-IRT4HHNV1ME1X7C30WTI/Pear+Series%2C+cut+out+filter+red+black+background+PVA+pear+660+pix+copy.jpg my work - White Pear on Red, Digital Art from original Painting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1449659813615-IULWHSEFZ8NQYNFM2IV2/DSC04824.JPG my work - Winter Light through Silver Birch, Acrylic on Card https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480511093-WL5AXX90YLBTGT3QMFYZ/Port+Elliot+Watercolour.jpg my work - Hot Summer's Day, Horseshoe Bay, Port Elliot South Australia, Watercolour https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444480614955-89G89I3LHZSCA7BLZOQU/DSC00500.jpg my work - Lotus Bud, Botanical Gardens, Sydney Australia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444482593411-E49V420LNNRT37ZFU1I1/DSC05813.jpg my work - Burying the Hutongs, Beijing, Mixed Media Hand and Machine Embroidered Art Textile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444551419002-BQHSN92AXC2EBWISCNO3/DSC02897.JPG my work - Gold Covered Monk, Bangok https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444536187290-PRWFQ5GMFPK73RJSJKC0/DSC05794.jpg my work - London Calling, Mixed Media Art Textile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444482838609-M8DQQSKOYA98VJQU0NAT/Bald+Hill+pastel+on+paper.jpg my work - Mount Muirhead, Ancient Volcano, Millicent South Australia, Pastel on Paper I have always used the nickname 'Bald Hill' for this this small mountain, as it has no trees on it until almost ground level, and it stands out to me when I drive back to Penola from Millicent. I am intrigued by the light and shadow play depending on the season and the time of the day and have often stopped to observe. It always seems to be very mysterious to me and I was intrigued but not surprised, to learn of the very ancient stories connected to to it. This pastel drawing came from a very warm afternoon and the shadows were dense. It is an ancient volcano and is connected to the stories of the Boandik people, the first inhabitants and original owners of this region. The story tells is that It was the campsite oven spoken about in their Graitbul creation stories. This work is the beginning of a planned future textile series on this legend and the volcanic history of this region, often overlooked because of the higher profile of Mount Gambier.   It is pastel on apricot pastel paper and is professionally framed with a rustic timber moulding and wide matte board under glass.       https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483149131-T82OKBL5KN0I5DTRFSFX/Ross+Bridge+Tasmanian+FB+1+copy.jpg my work - Bridge at Ross, Tasmania, Machine and Hand Embroidered Art Textile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483002008-BOUBPVJ8ZZRN6ICTF4V6/Book+cover+sample+.jpg my work - Book Cover Detail, Mixed Media and Stitched Art Textile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483327919-TCK2XF31X1HNNRSVJ9SX/The+Old+Hills%2C+Flinders+Ranges+FB+1.jpg my work - Outer Hills of the Flinders at Dawn, South Australia, Mono Print and Mixed Media on Paper https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483399874-DPK9SZQKN60VN0ZVZ9IO/Looking+Down+on+the+Gorge%2C+Flinders+Ranges+best.jpg my work - Looking Down on the Gorge, Flinders Ranges South Australia, Hand & Machine Embroided Art Textile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483474604-ZEP4ZVFWAIRQUXW5UU34/Wistow+storm+.jpg my work - Stormy Day at Wistow, Pastel on Paper https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483638026-BSBW7UUWY7FXLH7BXFT2/DSC00351.jpg my work - Red Shutters & Painted Beams, Temple of Heaven, Beijing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483901146-W97QO1GQ0QEG0DY1ZF63/Skyscraper+maze+experiment.jpg my work - Hong Kong Maze, Acrylic & Mixed Media on Paper https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444485086480-PBN5ZONN7B22PBR7OHB2/blue+and+black+pear+on+yellow.jpg my work - Aqua and Grey Pear on Lime and Yellow, Collage Oil and Mixed Media on Paper https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55546a6be4b082bba4356c94/1444483733127-9I7HGU9I59DS3TU8BNKU/Late+Autumn+Sunset+Penola+final.jpg my work - Autumn Sunset, Penola South Australia.

Encrusted Limestone reckon the shore at Beachport South Australia I am fascinated by limestone in all its forms found in the Limestone Coast. This work captures the moment I looked down on a limestone rock on the shore at Beachport covered in remnants of living creatures and one live shell clinging to the rock, soon to be covered by the tide. My aim was to make this work appear to be a sample, a reminder of my unique coast. It is a complex build of materials usingfine art techniques.

Most of these are hand dyed. Background was first painted and heat set. My intention is that this work is viewed as a drawing and therefore I have not simply filled in the spaces with machine stitching. I wanted this to seem as it was, a drawing in my sketchbook. This was capturing a moment in the last light after the sun had set and following a fascinating day of driving around a section of Lake Mungo.
