Biography:

The best way to describe myself is to say I am an artist that uses many forms of mediums to produce different works of art. I have exhibited in print, oil painting, and ceramics. My main subject while doing my BA and MA was the history of the doll. I came to realise from my study of the history of the doll what a greater influence it has had on shaping the world we live in today. The doll itself has also been one of the main influences in my own life and my art. Print 1 and 2 are part of my extinguished project that i Read Mores about abortion and the policies of the one child one parent in china. The mothers used dolls a symbol for the grief that they are experiencing and this is shown within my two prints.
