“Art is my passion and joy.”

Rochelle explores new and exciting perspectives through the mediums of printmaking and collage. She uses a variety of subject matter through an environment of vivid color and bold images to capture that which is abstract. Her inspirations are drawn from memories and life experiences. Rochelle’s love of nature has inspired many of her original prints. She takes photographs of places she visits to create compositions that impact on our senses and perceptions. In her collages Rochelle uses every day objects such as hair, candy wrappers, Japanese papers and other found objects to produce strong textures.
