SCREENPRINTS & COLLAGE
 I studied screen printing in the 1980's but because I did not have a studio at that stage it was not practical to try to produce works in the kitchen of a small house. In 2008 I came across a file of screen prints form the 80's and used them with collage to make 'new' art.

PHOTOGRAPHY
The first art I practiced was photography and while I am fairly haphazard in my approach, I still use the medium. Especially in the production of prints and in installation art.
