Have you ever wondered what your life would be like when you got old? When I was a kid I used to think that old was 30 but now Im in my late 50's I have no concept of what old is. I only know that age has brought with it a whole lot of wonderful new experiences, and renewed confidence. It doesnt matter how old you are there is no time like right now to start doing the things you have always dreamed of. I look at every new focus in my life as an adventure, something exciting and with purpose and today I am embarking on a new adventure with Verdigris Creative Studio, to share my craft, knowledge and art in the hope that others will find their inner artistic self.It's as simple as that, so here we go.....

I'm not a scholar, I think with my heart or gut rather than my head, some things just dont feel right and others just fit, I'm not really bothered with logic and I do things because I can rather than because I should, this is the me I am now, the me I like being and the me I have always dreamed of being, it's has taken 56 years, five children  and three marriages but I finally made it.  Awesome !!!

Half the battle is getting started. 
I have come full circle on my creating journey with lots of twists and turns along the way but I am still going
My passion for creating  and more so sharing what I have learned has never been so strong as it is today. There have been times that I have put down my brushes and packed my tools, books & bits and pieces into boxes but I have never stopped creating in some form or other. I am a visual thinker and not constrained by the boundaries of any one particular style or form of art, I just like what takes my fancy at any time on any given day, I have been described as perhaps having a fragmented attention span because I cant find one concept that I want to stick with but I like to think I am more like an explorer always on the look out for new paths
