My Story
I’m an artist passionate about the transformative power of creativity. Through intuitive, playful mark-making, I create colourful paintings that encourage us to slow down, reconnect with the present moment and notice the beauty in everyday life.
I believe creativity can have a powerful impact on our wellbeing. When we allow ourselves to get lost in the process, without worrying about the outcome, we create space for joy, freedom and a renewed sense of peace.
Where it all began
My love of painting began in childhood, inspired by my
great-grandmother’s artwork. At school, I struggled with a processing disorder, but creativity gave me a sense of freedom and comfort.
Although I studied graphic design and later worked as an account manager, the pull towards painting never left. In 2013, I decided to follow it, taking art lessons and discovering a joy and freedom that confirmed I was on the right path.
After leaving my career to become a full-time mum, I continued developing my art through curiosity, experimentation and trusting the creative process.
Finding my confidence
A few years later, opportunities came along that I could once only have dreamed of. I exhibited at the Sussex Art Fair and Hampshire Open Studios, and in 2023 I was able to take part as a wildcard artist for Landscape Artist of the Year.
These experiences helped me grow in confidence, both as an artist and as a person. My paintings have taught me that taking risks, embracing the unexpected and being brave can lead to something far more exciting than playing it safe.
Looking ahead
I’m continuing to grow my own art practice while inspiring others through my paintings, commissions and workshops.
Alongside this, my husband and I have developed an online organisational platform to support artists, with the long-term vision of creating an online membership community offering connection, inspiration and practical support for artists on their creative journeys.
Ultimately, I want to encourage more people to embrace creativity, find their own sense of freedom and bring more colour, joy and possibility into their lives.
