Following degrees in Design, Art History and Fine Art my creative practice is now underpinned with time spent drawing, looking, photographing, musing. 

I love to work expressively and fluidly with water-based mixed media. Colour is always predominant in my work and it is colour and the qualities of the pigments themselves which call to me and leads me in to explore further the distinct qualities of my art materials in response to my subjects.

Living in the Lake District clearly inspires me and helps to fuel the creativity in my own work. The magic really happens though when I share my expressive and exploratory approach with others and help them to connect with their own creative spark.

As an associate artist of Wallace Seymour Fine Art Products and a member of the Lake Artists Society, I have been inspiring and teaching art to all ages and levels for over 20 years now. I do hope that you enjoy making a connection with me and observing your own spark glowing a little brighter every day.
