I have been involved with the Dragonfly Gallery since 2006, when it was first opened, exhibiting pictures and crafts on a regular basis when my husband and I lived in Morley St Botolph.  At that time I was a member of the Spooner Row Art Club and Wymondham Art Club.  That was 10 years ago, where has the time gone?

My one-woman show is entitled “Kaleidoscope: A Medley of Paper, Canvas and Wood”  and includes  my framed paintings in  watercolour, acrylics on box canvas together with greeting cards of my pictures, bookmarks etc.  I do not have a favourite media or style, painting very much according to what inspires me and the mood I am in at the time, sometimes something tranquil other times I like to let rip with lots of colour!

Pyrography is my main craft hobby and used to be called “poker work” centuries ago, when it was often the task of the local blacksmith to make signs etc using a hot poker.  It became much more refined and beautiful examples of it can be found in country houses.  Today an electric tool with a “hot wire” is used. I am very fond of decorating wooden items of all kinds, some are very simple kitchen items, others of a more ornamental nature, firstly, burning the outline, often with the Norfolk Poppies we all love and then painting the designs.

The exhibition contains a very wide variety of items in a wide range of prices and whether the item is a personal choice or a gift, there is plenty to choose from.
