My Story

  I grew up as we often do, loving drawing and painting, and then after school I studied and worked as a graphic artist for a number of years before I did a complete turn around and studied veterinary nursing! Today I still work full time in an animal based industry with dogs. I am very fortunate to have a I job I love.

​

In 2013 I decided to make time to paint again and my family gifted me an on-line course, since then I have taken a number of on-line courses and  joined a wonderful community of mentors and friends. Thanks to these people I have come to realise that art is just about letting go, having fun and just enjoying the process.

​

I’m a lover of colours with botanical details. I create imaginative, colourful paintings in my lovely home studio with inspiration that is derived from the natural world, my urban landscape and my imagination.

I love mixed media and I will usually include acrylic Inks, acrylic paints, watercolours, prints, handmade papers, charcoal, pens and just about anything I can get my hands on. My work also usually includes elements of college and textured pattern. 

​

I encourage you to check out my latest collection where you can find out so much more about my art by just looking at it than I will ever be able to put into words, the people who are closest to me will tell you I’m not much of a talker, in fact I’m quite the introvert, preferring to spend my time just hanging out at home with my supplies or a good book and a cuppa.

​

When I am not painting, getting dirty with clay or dreaming up new ideas, there's a good chance you will find me, In the garden with Jason, hunting for vintage treasures, visiting the theatre with my daughter or looking for travel tips for my next holiday

​

This is a place for me to share my creative journey through mixed media, paint  and clay with you. 
 

I hope you enjoy visiting my site.
