She has been learning oil and cold wax techniques at the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in Ireland and through the Cold Wax Academy.She works in series and of the most recent she has said “In the Earth series I am using earth and neutral colours combined with various shapes and lines to evoke memories of places I have seen – deserts, deep down in caves, paintings and engravings on rocks, animal tracks, wind blown sand and geological strata.”
