I am a semi abstract painter working from my garden studio in rural Lincolnshire.
My love of art and creativity began at an early age winning many art competitions before completing a foundation course at Lincoln Art College followed by an Honours Degree in Textiles from Manchester Met University.
My style captures the emotion and atmosphere of nature - the sea, the sky, stormy clouds and wild landscapes feature in my work. A lifetime love of colour and texture, I mainly work in acrylic but often use mixed media to enhance the artwork.
After my degree I embarked on a varied artistic career from colour mixing in a textile studio to running my own successful online card and print company.
In 2020 when the pandemic hit, I had to make some big changes in my life and I rekindled my love of painting. My work featured in The Artist magazine and I was a semi finalist in The Artist lounge competition 50 Shades of Red run by The Kinghouse Gallery. I have also shown my work at The Carre Gallery in Sleaford and the Summer Open at The Tarpey Gallery in Derbyshire.
I am now also an artist with the beautiful Whistlefish Gallery in Cornwall, have my art prints for sale through Anthropologie in the US and currently in talks with two other American Publishing companies to licence my artwork.
I live with my wonderfully supportive husband, two lovely sons, 2 rabbits and a cat called Betty.
