The pic above is of me (left) and my mum, Erin, in front of my very first art resin piece. It's where my love for resin began - but not where my love of art began.

 

My regular profession is marketing, where I put to use creative ideas and use my marketing experience to make a difference in organisations. I also hold a Diploma of Commercial Arts in addition to a Bachelor of Business where I majored in Marketing and Business Communications.

Funky Bitz was born from a love of art, and as an escape from the real world. The pieces you see are unique, one-of-a-kind, and are crafted by my hand (with occasional assistance from my husband!). 

They are perfectly imperfect; they are art pieces that are not machine rendered, mass produced or digitally enhanced. When you add one of my pieces to the shopping cart - you are adding hard work, dedication, and the slight imperfections that come with the ownership of something made by hand.

Most importantly, you are supporting a local business - one that started right here in your home land, beautiful Australia with it's hot summers, glistening beaches and unique wildlife. 

I draw inspiration from all walks of life, but the environment around me is where I find the most beauty. My family and I are outdoors people and seek adventure mostly at the beautiful beaches here in Queensland.
