Tell us a little about yourself:
i always knew i wanted to be an artist as my mother was. She always encouraged me to tell my stories through pictures. I was interested in fashion at an early age and wanted to be a designer so I went to an art high school and college.

Though, after my first year doing design at college I discovered I preferred the drawing side instead and became a fashion illustrator which was my occupation for the next 20 years.

I worked in London, New Zealand, Buenos Aires and Israel.

13 years ago I began to paint and do lithography and discovered that I enjoyed that more and 4 years ago went back to university again and did my bachelor of fine arts and majored in painting.

My greatest creations are my 2 children, aged 16 and 28.
