About

I have always been passionate about creating art, finding immense joy in every step of the process, from the initial conception to the completion of the finished piece.

Having studied at a young age at an art college, I cultivated a love for both 2D imagery, as well as sculpting in various mediums. Inspiration comes from everything around me, including nature, architecture, social comments and the complexities of the human experience.

I have only in recent years come back to producing my own art, having worked with wonderful people with learning difficulties for many years and bringing up children, I have now found the time to come back to it, and enjoying every moment.
