My current passion is transforming recycled paper into artwork. I use old newspapers, and I especially enjoy reading the articles before giving them new life in my creations.

It takes me back to my childhood, attending art classes at a church group – the place where my love of art first began. The pieces I’m creating now bring me a deep sense of pleasure and relaxation.
