About me

Shortly after my graduation from Bath Spa University's Sion Hill in 1995, I ventured into the world of graphic design by establishing my own business.

In 2010, my creative journey led me back to my first love ofpainting, which I pursued in conjunction with my design business. By 2019, my passion of painting deepened, culminating in the completion of an MA in Fine Art with Distinction at West Dean College of Arts and Conservation, following a Graduate Diploma in Visual Arts from West Dean in 2018.

My artistic inspiration derives from the enchanting and serendipitous forms found in nature, and my paintings are a testament to this, characterized by intricate layers that evoke the experience of looking through untamed meadows from a low vantage point.

With each painting, my primary objective is to capture a sense of spontaneity that imparts the energy and vitality inherent in our wonderful natural landscapes. These subtleties may not be immediately evident to the viewer, but, much like the ever-changing seasons, my paintings reveal their nuances over time. I take immense joy in the play of colors, intensity, and the sense of freedom my art brings me, and it beckons the viewer on a captivating journey to a carefree realm.

My painting career took off in 2010 when I "borrowed" a shop in Arundel to curate and promote my own exhibition. The event proved an instant success and garnered commendation from none other than The Duke of Norfolk.
