------------------------------------------------
Designs have been born from my studies of time and space, love of ancient culture, and fascination of fate and destiny. The desire to learn more has meant the continued development of both myself and my craft, more often than not without formal instruction, but instead, built by luminations from the subconscious.
Inquiring by nature, the desire of wanting to 'know' has led me to go down many paths. Psychiatry & the study of the human condition was one of these & I trained to become a psychiatric nurse, my path for the next for 15 years.
I decided to follow my heart, and obtained a degree in fine art, something I always wanted to do but thought was out of my reach.
I had always been curious that there could be an existence outside of reality as we know it. I have always thought about things and daydreamed. I saw images of designs in my mind and solutions to design dilemmas, how to make what I saw.
My interest is in the map of one's life & the manifestation of it - fate, destiny, the study of time & our place in the ebb & flow of the cosmos. Life feels much better when we swim with the tide rather than against it.
The Queen of Sheba has become my design label where I use a broad range of materials from textiles to glass, oil paints to mother of pearl to create luxury items.
