Biography
While my children were very young and my partner
was commuting to London every day, I felt the pull to find an outlet for my
creativity to balance the amazing but challenging nature of parenting twins. So,
I returned to a passion I’ve long held and ventured out with my baby girls in
tow to buy paint and canvases. I've never looked back.
I feel a deep connection with colours that
nourish the souI and I work intuitively with bold, bright colours in abstract
and semi-abstract form. My work includes watercolours, inks, oils
and acrylics on canvas. One collection, entitled “String Theory”, incorporates
a painstaking but satisfying technique that appeals to the senses from both a
tactile and visual perspective.
For me, a work of art is all about how it makes
you feel. My main aim is to bring joy to the soul through stunning colours and
textures; to transform and uplift our lives. My paintings are ideal for large, minimal
and contemporary spaces whether in homes, hotels or offices.
