Biography
Self-taught, I picked up a paintbrush for the first time in years when my twins were small to paint murals in their rooms and haven't stopped since.
As a young child, I was always creating something but life has had a tendency to get in the way and time for art has often been the first thing to go. I am fortunate enough to have rediscovered something that I can lose myself in, and I like the way that I now take more notice of the little things when I am trying to capture an image.
After those initial murals for my children, I continued to paint them for a number of years and still love the challenge of creating on a grand scale but now concentrate on painting and drawing smaller works so it's easier to fit around caring for my daughter who has ME.
If you are looking for prints rather than originals, these are available through Etsy as I offer 'open' rather than 'limited' editions and only limited editions can be sold through Artfinder.
