How would you describe the work you do and why?:
Although the subjects I like best are portraits and life drawing, some of the paintings I'm proudest of reflect something I became passionate about. This could be something beautiful, or my reaction to an engaging (or irritating) person, or simply, just to have fun.
For you what does being an artist mean?:
I'm scared stiff when I first stand in front of a blank canvas, but once I get going I find the whole process very absorbing. I just like to be creative!
Describe what you call yourself/your practice?:
Very part-time art student!
Your practice & activities include e.g workshops, teaching:
I've been on several workshops, as a student, which taught me a lot.
CV & Education, relevant & leading to your artistic practice:
No directly relevant education, but I was horse mad as a child. Riding lessons, or even a pony were out of the question, so I tried drawing them! And I've always doodled.
Exhibitions in the last 3 years:
Er, no.
Your gallery outlets/stockists:
As above!
