I make art because I have to make art.
I spent my childhood and schooldays in
Zimbabwe, studied at the Michaelis School of Art in Cape Town and
learnt politics in Natal.
In the sixties I left South Africa to
seek asylum in liberating London.
In the seventies I became a mother, wife
and Feminist in England.
In Zambia in the eighties I worked as
teacher, art gallery director and expatriate economic migrant.
In the nineties I returned to live, learn
and paint in East Anglia.
I have always made art though at times
been lost for direction, identity and method.
My art is the process by which I explore
connections, conflict, creativity and communication.
I have written poetry since I was at school and this blog is my first attempt to share it.
All the work on this blog is by me and is mine and the copyright is mine.
