How would you describe the work you do and why?: 

Coming from a textile design background, my paintings almost look like screen prints because I layer block colours and never blend them. I use flat gouache paint and work from a vibrant colour palette to enhance the saturation and highlight the beauty of the architecture.

For you what does being an artist mean?: 

Creating these paintings brings me so much joy which is expressed through my choice of colour and I hope it brings the same feeling to viewers.

Describe what you call yourself/your practice?: 

A print designer from Garway, Herefordshire who is currently developing a collection of local church paintings in the form of framed prints and greetings cards. I am also taking commissions to paint houses int hie contemporary style.

Your practice & activities include e.g workshops, teaching: 

I work full time in fabric sourcing for a fashion brand, but am keen to develop my practice as a freelance print/textile designer.
