Hi my name is Teena and I love the idea of swap mail. I started doing ATC a few years ago and enjoyed it but then stopped as we travelled Australia in a caravan. We have now stopped and living in Queensland in a little rural town. I love Art, paper and receiving mail!!! I am a mother of four children and with my husband own a Caravan Tourist park. I am a very creative person however dont seem to have time to do big projects. I did study art and graduated with a visual Arts degree in Printmaking and Drawing. I love experimenting in a variety of mediums. I think this swap will help give me wonderful inspiration and a chance to combine many techniques. I love nature and draw a lot of inspiration from the world around me, I am also a animal lover with 2dogs, 1cat and 2guinea pigs.

I love natural earthy colours browns, greens and blues. I love natural papers or handmade paper.

I use a lot of Black and white in my printmaking and find my work very bold.

I like things a little quirky and appreciate the difference in everything.

I've enjoy making envelopes and I think it's very addictive. With all the beautiful papers available I love creating them!

Another thing I've started collecting in handmade origami cranes, I love that someone has taken the care to make them and I love them hanging on my window with all different designs and colours :)

I think I love most foods and love trying new things. My favourite dinner would be chicken curry and my favourite cake would be carrot cake.

I drink tea and coffee and enjoy herbal teas too. I also enjoy a glass of wine or a cold beer on a hot day.

Please let me know if you don't receive a swap from me I will do my best to work it out. I do live in a country area so sometimes mail takes a little longer, also as a lot of my swaps are international please allow a few weeks for them to get to you. I look forward to being apart of this great swapping community :)
