I am a qualified fine artist and teacher. I love painting, drawing and life. My work, I hope spreads optimism, humour, and small delights found in everyday life. I aim to spread positivity through art and inspire others to do the same. I am a believer that everyone can draw and through experience know undoubtedly that art makes us stop and see the world differently.
During the start of the pandemic, I arrived back in the same village in which I was born with my five feline rescue cats. Living a quintessentially Rusper life is my main source of inspiration. I love using watercolour and gouache together to make layers and allowing the unexpected to happen in a controlled kind of way. The translucency of the watercolour and the opaque gouache are a great mix for me. For canvas and large paintings, I often choose Acrylic Gouache. I love to paint things that bring me joy of the everyday. Using everyday subjects, playing with composition, perspective and colour I hope to give the viewer an opportunity to become their own narrator of their own story.
My Sketchbooks are a key part of my painting process. Making my own sketchbooks means I have control over the paper. I use these for painting on walks and travels capturing native colours and the atmosphere and vibe of the places I visit. Visit my Instagram for short reels of work in process and top tips for gouache and watercolour painting.
What can I say about drawing? For me observational drawing is meditative. It uses a different part of my mind and allows the chatter to stop for a short while. Often the meaning and sentiment reveal themselves through delicate mark-making decisions. I rarely take on painted commissions however drawings are considered.
For many years I have funded myself through web and logo design. Being familiar with Adobe Creative Suite means I can merge my illustration skills with print design. If you are fed up with Stock Photos like the rest of us and want something more personal get in touch.
