Details
Through acrylic paint and pastels, I explore a mindful, meditative approach grounded in healing and self-expression, creating pieces which resonate with emotional depth and beauty. While each series varies in theme, my distinctive use of colour, mark making and layering embodies a unique handwriting, balancing uplifting energy with a sense of tranquillity.
My distinctive style reflects a deep understanding of colour, texture, and form, honed through years of working in fashion. Taking a series-based approach, I draw inspiration from curated colour palettes and themes to create visually compelling narratives.

Painting intuitively offers me the freedom to express myself with colours and marks, reflecting my emotions and responses to the world around me which words alone can’t express. Whilst immersed in exploring ideas and textures, no matter how difficult, I feel grounded and calm which is reflected in the uplifting, peaceful nature of my paintings.
Contemporary artist creating dreamy abstract paintings with soft layers & expressive brushstrokes in vibrant colours to infuse your home with uplifting energy and a sense of tranquillity.
I offer original paintings, private tuition, art workshops, fine art prints, cards and painterly clothing.
With a strong foundation in creative design, I earned a Foundation Art & Design qualification from Aberdeen College in 1997, followed by a BA (Hons) in Fashion Design from Winchester School of Art in 2000. I then built a dynamic career in high-end women’s fashion, designing biannual collections, bespoke bridalwear and a nursingwear range until 2019, when I retrained with established artists to embrace the freedom of intuitive painting.
