Life has been a series of changing circumstances, which have shaped the artwork and the type of subject matter used as the underlying themes. Science Fiction and Fantasy have always played a large part in this. While an interest in Astrology and Symbolism, which were born out of a series of stressful events her life in 1990, have been more resent, enriching the quality of the work, the understanding of human nature and the universe we live in and gaining friends through this understanding.

In more resent times, an interest in movies and computer animation has led to the use of 3D modeling programs to create objects and figures for graphics. This has brought together all the other art & craft skills learned in the past into one medium. A graphic novel to be done in 3D is currently in the works under the title "Deadman's Curse".

An on-line novel "Voltarrens of the Six Realms" was started at around the same time as going back to study. Study was at Victoria University for a year until it became no longer financially possible. The novel continued, was put online and is now at a stage where it is being edited and being prepared to be sent to publishers. With this, short stories are also being written and being submitted to magazines.

Current circumstances have lead back to esoteric studies, working full time as an artist in 3D graphics and living a better life with her partner.
