Original artwork description:

The first painting I sold online with Saatchi was a woman in a red hat.

Thanks to a cheeky little sketch I did back in 2010. A drawing that completely changed my life. Later in 2012, I worked extremely hard working in the back of a gallery learning from a couple of (lazy) but great artists. Of course, I didn’t get paid for it more the other way around), but it was a brilliant experience.

I opened my studio/gallery and did well selling to tourists, but it was hard work and long hours, so I decided to move to the mainland and concentrate on selling online.

I sold many paintings for little money with eBay, but it was a good learning experience. In 2014, I was invited to join ArtFinder, which I did, but I didn’t do a lot with it In 2016, I sold my first painting online with Saatchi Art for $650, and after I stopped dancing around the room, I thought this online business could be interesting.

In January 2018, ArtFinder tipped me as one to watch and invest in. It went crazy, and it’s been crazy ever since. I then had a phone call from Singulart in Paris asking if I was interested in joining them, and now I’ve sent my work to 64 countries and for 2023, I’m in the top 10 women to invest in with Singulart.
