Profile
Teacher by day, teacher at heart.
I am an amateur photographer, part-time artist, full-time teacher, occasional backpacker/traveller/explorer, aspiring writer, homemade internet geek, professional chatterbox and self-proclaimed Generation X-er.
I love all things creative, my style would be described as large scale with organised mess :)
This probably applies to my painting, drawing, singing and piano ability…as well as my wardrobe!
I draw and paint when I have a spare moment and can handle the mess, I work better when I have a specific project to complete. Photography is a recent hobby, my love for it has grown since getting my hands on bigger and better cameras, and my new affection for overseas travel.
Thanks for taking the time to check out my work.
Here is a collaboration I did with fellow redbubbler traceyann

28 going on 14
Sometime during 2006 I found myself going through one of the most excruciating, embarrassing and nerdy processes that plagues teenagers. I had my braces applied. The problem? I was 27. A long journey …
A Beaver out of the River
Overjoyed to have a social event etched on the calendar, I was like a child counting down to Christmas, eagerly anticipating a big night out. It seemed like a fantastic idea, round up all the single p…
The Great Snow Cone Adventure
“What flavour?” “Hmm, do you have cola? No? I’ll have orange.” “What size?” I know that this is a trick question. It’s my sixth day in the USA …
Unhyjeanic Shopping
At a time when I was at a heavier weight than now, clothes shopping was not always a successful event, unless I crossed that imaginary line into the ‘big girls’ department. So it was with great de…
The Great Cultural Divide
They talk about people from different cultures having different food, clothing, ceremonies, languages, even events. One thing they do not often talk about is, different bathroom habits. Now anyone who…
Sylvia the Florist
All single girls play games when they are out on a night that involves scouting for single men. I myself am guilty. One of my favourite tricks, and a favourite of many of my single friends, is to inve…
