I am inspired by nature and landscape and my work has often been described as calm and relaxing.  My current passion and focus is for watercolour and I am largely self taught in this medium. However, I am happy working with other mediums such as acrylics, collage and pastels.

​

“I find watercolour challenging but I am excited by the many factors that can make it behave in an surprising way. It is trying to understand it’s nature, the environmental factors and to respond to the inevitable serendipity that may occur, which captivates my interest and imagination for this medium. Drawing on my design background I now plan to explore adding textural elements within watercolour.”

​

I attained a first-class degree in Art and Design as a mature student and became a freelance surface pattern designer for a number of years which enabled me to work from home whilst raising our children. I live in a small rural village in Cheshire with my husband and I love music, travel, walking and food. Along with the surrounding countryside, a little garden provides a huge sense of enjoyment through the cultivation of plants and flowers and the wildlife that choose to inhabit it. I am a keen member of The Artists Group, Grosvenor Art Society and regularly exhibit with these groups.  I receive regular commissions from Decibellas Women’s Choir of which I am a long standing member and I have recently provided artwork for the High Sheriff of Cheshire.
