I am a British fine artist working primarily in oils, with a deep passion for inspiring others to embrace their own creativity. I have also had the privilege of co-authoring two #1 international bestselling books, an experience that has further fueled my dedication to sharing the joy of artistic expression.

From my earliest memories, creativity gave me the most authentic connection to my being through drawing, painting and then later, photography. While working as a photographer’s assistant I developed my visual skills and became accomplished in manipulating colour prints by hand and I use these methods digitally, in my work to this day. After training as a special effects Makeup Artist I worked on various projects with celebrities and emerging musicians, the work appeared in the national press and on album covers. I loved it however practicalities took precedence during my mid twenties and the pursuit of artistic endeavors was set aside for more conventional work in order to support myself.

Although art had to take a back seat it has always been an intrinsic part of my life. While studying fine art , I was hugely inspired by the impressionist artists. the simplicity in the way they painted what they saw, thought and felt resonated with me. I’ve alway been intrigued by the way they captured the optical effects of light, infusing their work with movement and a sense of the fleeting beauty of the present moment. This is something I strive for in my own work.

My journey to becoming a full-time artist in midlife stands as a testament to the power of embracing creative dreams, regardless of the challenges. My work has been represented by galleries across the UK and exhibited internationally, earning the admiration of a growing base of private collectors worldwide. It has been featured in notable publications such as Artist & Illustrator Magazine, House and Garden, Canvas Rebel, and Bold Journey Magazine. This year, I had the honor of being named one of the "Women to Watch in 2024" by Premier Magazine, UK.

I am incredibly grateful to have the freedom and support to do what I love full-time, thanks for reading and being here.
