Helen, with a background in biological sciences, has had a life-long fascination with birds, plants and animals, and with the way in which life cycles in nature become spiritual and symbolic points of reference for our own realities.  She takes what is common and everyday and makes for us, through the medium of the woodblock print, imaginary worlds of surprise, interconnectivity, whimsy, and joy.
