Hello everybody out there - a little bit about me - I am a traveler, born and raised in Australia by parents of English and Welsh decent. After spending a year abroad during my university years I continued around the world... a year in England, 4 years in the Netherlands and now 2 in Israel. The world can feel both remarkably small and big.

My expression is through art (as an artist I go by the name 'Brite Star' https://britestar.carbonmade.com/) and I continue to produce anything that flows through me, paintings, picture books, journals, land art, sculpture, conceptual pieces - whatever needs to be expressed. In Israel I work as both an artist and a nanny. It is in the last 3 years that my focus has turned to the body, the female body especially and our menstrual cycle. I am studying myself with great curiosity. It seems that all the answers can be found very close to 'home'.

I love cheezy 80s and 90s music plus sci-fi 80s films :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Israel with no idea of the country or culture - could be considered stupid or brave! And living in a community focused on open communication and the development of dreams.
