As an artist based in the South East of England I am surrounded by fantastic natural and urban landscape that inspires me to be creative.
I enjoy travelling and some of my artworks are developed from the photographs I take in Greece and Austria. Various methods are used to produce an image and I especially love mixing different media and finding innovative materials and combinations to convey texture, pattern and colour. I especially enjoy combining graphic line with looser paint technique and recently have found that working with acrylics on clayboard lends itself to this style.
My art career has been varied and includes representation in London galleries through the Society of Graphic Fine Art where I was a prize winner in 2008. Oxford Press have used an image of mine on the cover of one of their books and Derwent Art have featured some of my art to promote their products. I regularly display my art through local galleries as well as on a number of online platforms. Recently I was given an opportunity to be involved with a project highlighting the bee kingdom and hope to pursue this further.
