For Layers & Legends, we have challenged each artist to bring a piece of their own story to their project.

Their journey.
Their memories.
Their style.
Their layers.

Expect texture, colour, vintage treasures, patina, hidden details, beautiful techniques and projects filled with personality and meaning.

And then it will be YOUR turn to tell your story.

Four days. An extraordinary group of artists. A whole lot of mixed-media magic.

Well… somehow I blinked and turned 70!

They say age is just a number..... and in my case, it’s a very impressive number with plenty of stories attached!

After 70 years of adventures, family, friendships, creativity, travel, laughter, a few wrong turns, sadness of losing loved ones and many wonderful memories, I’ve decided that growing older is actually a privilege.

I may be turning 70, but I still have plans to create, travel, laugh loudly, and enjoy every day that comes my way.

Here’s to celebrating the past, embracing the present, and proving that life really does get better with age!

And the best part is I'm not saying I used to do....... I'm still doing !!! planning cruises, organising retreats, launching new projects and inspiring hundreds of creatives....

Perhaps the real message of turning 70 ....

I'm not getting old ..... I'm becoming a classic ..... Seventy years of adventures behind me and plenty more still to come

My song ..... do the Dance by Lee Ann Womack..... listen to the lyrics....Its what my life represents
