WELCOME

A little bit about me…

Born 1969 in Birmingham, I trained at the Ruskin School of Drawing & Fine Art – Oxford University and graduated in 1992 with a 2:1 and was later awarded Master of Arts. I have exhibited throughout Oxford and the West Midlands and worked with high profile clients in the music industry.

My work is a celebration of life and art. I am a spiritualist and a Reiki master and my aim is to channel the essence and energy of my subjects and make them come alive in my work.

I am vegan, a lover of all animals and a passionate advocate for animal welfare. My entire life has been enriched by the presence of animals, both domestic and wild and I will always be in awe of our natural world and indebted to my parents for their introduction to it and for teaching me to love and respect it. To paint from this rich canvas is an absolute privilege.

I work in oils on canvas or inks and watercolour on paper. I love the variation between the time based medium of oil painting and the complete freedom and element of chance I get when I use inks and washes.
