About

Hi and welcome to my website.

I am an artist, based in the South of England, working out of my home studio.

My training started with an Art Foundation which led to a diploma in Footwear Design. I went on to work in desktop publishing and web design before taking a break to have a family. I now work part-time as a SEN Teaching Assistant and paint in every spare moment I have.

At the moment, I am going through a phase of painting flowers and I’m absolutely loving it! Each brush stroke is deliberate, leaving movement and shapes on the canvas. From this intense observation, I am discovering the fascinating structure of flowers and learn something new with every piece I create.

Previously, I have focussed on more stylised paintings of figures. These are steeped in emotions – some calming, some more intense. Some capture intimate relationships and some are solo and introspective.

I also have a collection of pastel drawings of my personal shoe collection. I studied how to make and design shoes when I was a teenager and loved every day of it. Recently, out of the blue, I found I had an urge to draw my favourite shoes, including the ones I designed all those years ago.

My artworks are only available for sale on this website, which makes them very affordable. I may consider selling through a gallery in the future but for now I want to be able to offer my artwork for sale at half the price they would be if sold through a third party.

I hope you enjoy my artworks and please do get in touch if you are interested to know more.
