My personal body of work sees my experimental and personal expression through large scale works that tell a tale individually and together as a group.

An artist, a mother, a cook, a life lover.

I work from my light filled garden studio in West Sussex, UK.

Often found carving printing blocks or covered in inks with the puppy (Sherlock) & cat (Eddie) by my side listening to the radio, favourite pod-casters or audio books.

MY STORY ‘It’s taken 2 chapters prior to this one to find my place here & now’.

Chapter 3, 2017-now.

A change in circumstances lead me to becoming an artist today. I studied print & textiles at Ravensbourne university back in 1998. My love for print was nurtured from a young age lino cutting helped developed this at secondary school. I now work from my home studio & BIP in Brighton where I use their Colombian printing press for my larger scale pieces. I love relief printing, a lot. A lot of my work uses the block print as a base which I work into with, inks, enamels, precious leaf metals and pencil. I use lino, wood and mono-printing as well as my large scale textile pieces to develop my body of work.

My personal body of work sees my experimental and personal expression through large scale works that tell a tale individually and together as a group. My latest works have been sold to a private collector in New York, USA.

Commissions. I’ve worked with a range of creatives and companies on various projects. From original artworks for feature films, land-mark buildings for corporation, single covers for musicians to illustrations for magazines.

I’m a mother to 7 children and am engaged to the love of my life. We live a happy, laughter filled life with our puppy, Sherlock & cats.
