INTERESTS

Gardening – growing and planting a variety of different plants, edible and ornamental – tall trees, small shrubs and bushes, flowers and grasses, creating spaces within and around our garden.
Nature – watching flora and fauna that surrounds my living space, experiencing the needs of each other’s existence – never ending learning, never ending surprises, which reflects and repeats in my work. It is a kind of a circle – a shape that I like.
