Hello

Hello Collabor-Artists! My name is Sonja Wright and I'm mostly known as Wrightboysmum on the various forums I frequent. I'm not that keen on having my photo taken but I do have one from Jubilee Day at work where we wore tiaras all day.


I'm really pleased to be able to join this group and create art with like minded peeps. My favourite thing is to be messy and inky and my work are used to me appearing with inky fingers that takes days to disappear. I live in Aberdeenshire with my long suffering husband and my two boys and I have always done something creative probably to make up for the fact that I really wanted to go to art school but being good at science mean't I actually ended up working in a laboratory. Still not sure how that happened but it did. These days I predominately scrapbook and art journal and I have different approaches to them and they don't really meet in the middle. I love inks and gesso and stamps on my art journal work but it very rarely appears on my scrapbook work which is fairly graphic and linear. I blog here at The Secret Life of a Scrap Stash Collector and these are my current favourites from my work.




I know Sarah through UKScrappers and circle journals and I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone else as well. Sonja.x
