index | paintings

Vera originally trained as a painter but over the last few years has explored printmaking. The distance from the original idea necessary in printmaking techniques has influenced her painting and encouraged her move towards abstraction.

In paint she uses mixed media, taking full advantage of the resist methods.  In printmaking she likes to use the painterly techniques of monoprint and collage.
