Wherever she travels she soaks up local colour, customs and cultural influences. The cross-cultural experiences blend with her lively imagination her creativity and her love of the outdoors provide an endless variety of subjects for her art work. Now, she lives in Burnaby. One afternoon in Japan, in 1984, she took a class in Chigiri-e a Japanese torn-paper collage technique. This opened her creative channels.
