Take some time TO
Welcome to my blog, I started keeping a diary as a young mum of three boys ( many years ago now). It was a wonderful way to record everyday life as a family and amuses me every time I read them. The diaries have developed over the years to include photos, keepsakes and sketches. They have accompanied me on holidays and witnessed all those special occasions. So I am excited to share with you, my latest ‘ creative diary’ or blog, here in my online studio.
I invite you to walk with me through the seasons as I sketch, paint and collage.
