drinking beer with Stephen Kilroy
Johanna learnt masonry from stonemason friends, Stephen Kilroy and Stuart Griffiths.
These are a few examples of Johanna’s work from 2023 to 2025.
The drive to learn stone walling came from wanting to protect and provide a safe environment for native lizards and skinks and to immerse one’s self wholeheartedly into the natural environment.
