I am a life long artsy girl, over the last 3 decades I have tried my hand at all sorts of art work. I studied Fine Art Sculpture, I taught secondary school art in the UK, I’ve painted children’s furniture and art work. I have felted and stitched fiber art and now I am now taking my first steps on a new adventure - illustration!

I love the joys, beauty and absurdity of life - from the imaginary world of my dogs, to the deliciousness of pizza and the fun of popular culture. I love drawing people - especially women and children and I dream of one day illustrating children’s books, as an educator I appreciate the special relationship a child can form with a story and it’s imagery. I believe art is for all and should reflect us all in our many weird and magical ways - I want to make images that connect with everyone - yes! Even you!

I work with both tradition materials and digital. I am relatively new to working digitally but I am already so excited by the endless possibilities it presents. I don’t think I will ever stop working with pencil, pen and paint in a sketchbook.

I get an enormous kick out of producing a commissioned piece of work that delights my clients. If you are looking for something special to commemorate a special occasion or to be that person that gave THAT gift - drop me a line, I’d love to create something special for you.

I am available for hire and looking for representation!
