I have always had a passion for colour and creativity...

I create modern, contemporary paintings with a twist. Working in oils and acrylics I paint large or small pieces to fit in any space with an emphasis on vibrant colour, in an arresting style that is both distinctive and original. I also undertake individual commissions and welcome any enquiries without obligation.
I opened my first Gallery in 2004 and have enjoyed many years of painting. Over the years my art has evolved with life and raising a family - but basically my work is me on a canvas, happy, sad, loud, quiet, fun, humorous... even over the top sometimes!! |

A little about me.... As a child I painted & doodled and as my mother said and continues to say I was always 'creating' somewhere. I found school challenging, always difficult to sit still, sometimes finding it hard to understand why people never saw things the way that I did.
Originally trained as a window dresser I enjoyed many years working around the country creating wonderful visual spaces. Restless by nature, I travelled and fuelled my passion for all things exciting and intriguing, experiencing different cultures and places which has moulded me into the individual I am today. With many artists their work is part of them - I find that whatever I’m going through at that moment in time comes through in my art. I also love to sing and perform and, as with my work, I enjoy an eclectic mix... singing with an operatic society and a rock band at the same time. One thing is for sure about my work... love it or hate it you can’t ignore it! |
