All about me...
Born 1985, Houston, Texas
Lives and works in the New Forest.
Hello and welcome to my website! Whether you are an artist or whether you just appreciate art, I hope you enjoy my work. Ever since I was a little girl, I have enjoyed the creative freedom which art allows. I'm sure we all have happy memories of art when we were younger such as colouring books, painting by numbers and just generally making a mess....
However, often as we grow older art is often pushed to one side. Thankfully, my parents always supported and encouraged me in my art. I worked hard at school but art was a subject I looked forward to and was my passion. I went on to train in fine art at Wimbledon School of Art for one year. I then decided to apply for an art degree and I spent three years at Winchester School of Art and graduated in 2007. I started working in Southampton and exhibited my work at various exhibitions.
I am always inspired by the beautiful New Forest surroundings around me. I like to use a wide variety of materials, although most recently I have been using oil paints. My art work focusses on the beauty of flowers as I really appreciate the detail, colour and the general aesthetics of them. I try and bring across a sense of Englishness in my work, painting flowers in vintage style.
If you'd like to get in touch and find out more about my work or if you would like to order some prints or originals, please feel free to contact me.
