I have always felt the power of a blank page and throughout my life have continually collected blank books, journals, notebooks... So, It was natural for me to discover the world of handmade books. I have been making journals and Sketchbooks for 10 years now and it is still a huge passion for me. I have sold hundreds of books online and at Artisan Markets.
Using paper from around the world, and different techniques, old and new, I am dedicated to the idea these traditions should be passed on.
If you are like me, a paper lover, then I hope to help you find the satisfaction I feel when making a handmade book.
I work and teach out of my home studio in Byron Bay as well as other venues.
