My story
Born in Australia and now living in the Swiss Alps, my art is shaped by contrasting landscapes, a background in fashion design and a playful eye for detail.
My story
Born in Australia and now living in the Swiss Alps, my art is shaped by contrasting landscapes, a background in fashion design and a playful eye for detail.
My Inspiration
Life, to me, is a vibrant kaleidoscope—ever-shifting and full of colour. Whether I’m cycling through my neighbourhood or exploring distant places, I’m captivated by the details: patterned tiles, weathered doors, buzzing markets, art, textiles, and quiet, everyday magic. These moments—conversations, shared meals, textures, emotions—layer themselves into a rich inner archive that fuels my creativity.
Exploration
I believe beauty lives in the small things and that art is like a Tardis—bigger on the inside, able to carry us through time, place, and feeling. Each piece I create is more than just an object—it’s a story, an invitation. I hope that as you explore my work, you feel a spark of connection, curiosity, and the joy of discovering something that feels a little like home.
Note: A Tardis is a time-traveling machine from the series Doctor Who—on the outside it looks like a simple blue telephone box, but step inside and it’s full of surprises.
"More is more and less is a bore"
— Iris Apfel.

I'm playfully resourceful and drawn to what others might overlook—a bit of a magpie, always finding beauty in the Bröcante. Whether I’m painting my next masterpiece (or at least trying to—ha!), reimagining an old chair, or stitching life into a forgotten piece of fabric, I celebrate the charm of imperfection and the joy of reinvention.
10 Fun facts about me
1
Globetrotter
I’ve explored 32 countries and landed in two others without technically visiting them (layovers count, right?).
2
Costume Cameleon
Over the years, I’ve "dressed-up" as a mermaid, Little Bo Peep, Elvis, Nephratiti, Cleopatra, wonder woman, the Queen of Hearts, walking Birds nest (easy with my hair) Whether it’s handmade, thrifted, or wildly improvised, I love turning imagination into outfits!
3
Fashion Design Student
I was a finalist in the Young Designer Awards (hosted by the Australian Wool Corporation). My design was inspired by an emu which much easier to draw than to turn into a dress.
4
Collumbia Camping
Tayrona National Park—a wild, breathtaking stretch of jungle and coastline—was where I camped in a hammock beneath palms. At night, strange sounds echoed, and locals whispered of a creature roaming nearby. Between that and falling coconuts, sleeping felt more like a brave act than a necessity. Unnerving, surreal, and unforgettable.
5
Famous Friends
I’ve had the privilege of meeting some amazing creatives, including Annie Sloan, Dionne Woods, Jonathon Marc Mendes, and Lori Siebert—all inspiring and wonderful! Plus, I’ve met a few people who will be famous—mark my words.

Jack of all trades
My job history is as colorful as my art: Dressmaker, zoo cafeteria (sadly, not with the animals), lunch bar, fish&chip shop, telesales (lasted two shifts because I couldn’t stop laughing), dishwasher, neoprene mender (which made me a "specialist"), adventure sports host, bead shop, toy shop assistant, waitress at Hooters. There’s more, but you understand why Im happy painting.

Multilingual-ish
I speak German with a Swiss accent and petit peu French. I may not be fluent, but I can navigate a French menu, which is arguably the most important skill.
8
Shower Genius
My best ideas happen in the shower, there’s something about the water and solitude that sparks my most creative thoughts. If only I could take notes mid-shampoo.
9
Circus Trauma
As a kid, I was randomly pulled from the crowd at a circus to hold a piece of paper in my mouth-which a whip cracker then whipped out. As a shy child, this was mortifying, but I survived (with all my teeth intact!).
10
Airbourne
Once upon a time, I was a solo paraglider pilot, soaring through the skies of Switzerland, New Zealand and Australia - just me, the wind, and an unbeatable view.

Wild Encounters
I’ve cuddled a lion, sat beside a real white tiger (and cheekily lifted his tail), and been wrapped in a full-on bear hug by giant orangutans. These incredible moments with wild animals were both humbling and unforgettable!
