“A woman must have money and a room of her own” Virginia Wolf

This is my little private gallery/studio space in my house, where I hang my work for reflection, sharing and discussion!

The Arabic script in the corner, is a piece of roadside signage, pillaged while working in Kuwait. It actually says “villa for rent”. Isn’t it divine! ?.

That chair in the corner is a hard rubbish find, courtesy of Fawkner rubbish collection. Archie (the cat) thinks its his of course. I must get it covered. Any suggestions?

THIS IS MY VISUAL LANDSCAPE. THE PLACE WHERE I RECORD PONDERINGS, SITINGS, MEETINGS AND OTHER HAPPENINGS.

I am an ethnographer, illustrator, publisher, graphic designer and educator. I am interested in telling stories with pictures.

I have just written, illustrated and published "What the Hell is Your Problem?" A Kit for Uptight White People.

If you click on the kit in the links section, you can check it out!

I lectured for six years at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. I also have a graduate Diploma in Education, and a Masters in Cross Disciplinary Design.
I have taught Communication Design at private colleges, and set up the inaugural Communication Design Program for the Box Hill Institute in Kuwait. Most of my past professional design work has involved designing identities for grass roots organisations, such as community health centres, and the Brotherhood of St Laurence.

I am interested in the developing role of Design as an agent for positive social change, around which I centred my final masters project, by designing a "kit for uptight white people", to raise civil engagement.
