Denis has always drawn, painted, written poetry and had a deep love of beautiful art and nature.
For many years Denise studied calligraphy and botanical art, exhibiting and attending many workshops, both in Australia and in the UK. On retiring, Denise decided to formalise and enhance her love of art, and went back to study, completing a Diploma of Visual Art, major study in painting, and minor study in printmaking.
Denise has diversified into other fields – making and designing jewellery, creating artist dolls, paper cutting as an art form, and more recently, creating artwork through the medium of cyanotypes, and eco printing, or botanical printing.
Denise’s love of flora and fauna is evident in the subject matter of her work, and she is appreciative of the abundance of natural beauty which is to be found in the Macedon Ranges.
