I live with my husband on The Gold Coast, Queensland Australia. I am the mother of 5 adult kids and grandmother to 3. My passion is photography,although I like to write poetry and lyrics for songs too.
I have an Associate Diploma of Applied and Creative Art and a Diploma of Photography. I was a single mum when I put myself through these courses but illness prevented me from having a business of my own.
I hope you find my work enjoyable

Wrap your flag around you, it will keep you safe and free / Love it, be proud and mostly be the best patriot you can be
Young men died on this ground, they dropped like flies, / The earth is still stained where their bodies once lie
We walked the long paddock day after day / Praying to God to send some water our way
Sheets of roofing iron flapped in the breeze / Grand old lady once had a family to please
