After finishing 4 years of Fine Art Painting at RMIT in the early 60’s, Eve had three children. She was involved in the social/ cultural movements of the times such as folk music, the peace movement, anti conscription, anti Vietnam war, Feminism, Land Rights, Rock-and- Roll, Punk. Posters and poster making were an exciting part of these activities. People communicated with posters, hand bills amd hand made cards. Sometimes Eve managed to save a poster.

“There was excitement, inventiveness, humour and hope. We thought we were changing the world by the way we lived.. Exploring family and gender roles and the myriad of creative pursuits in theatre, writing, circus, bands, photography, street art, screenprinting and more.”

Eve found her way into the workforce via an interest in theatre, especially backstage work at the Pram Factory Theatre in the 70’s and became involved in the community theatre wing of the Australian Performing Group, painting with Circus Oz at its foundation, and playing electric guitar with The Wimmins Circus. She went on to play in the women’s bands Toxic Shock and Barbies Dead. This was a time when some women were entering new territory such as trades, making movies, playing rock music etc.

Eve has spent her working life freelancing as a scenic artist/backdrop, set, props, floors, painter for TV, theatre, circus, film, also for the building, entertainment, visual merchandising and display industries as a designer, maker, painter of parade banners, floats and painted trams.

She was also at the forefront of developing large and small scale community mural projects Australia wide as well as various corporate commissions.

Eve has exhibited work in numerous exhibitions in Melbourne and Sydney and has work in the Totoro Collection and The Harding Collection.
