STATEMENT
I graduated
from art college in 1988 and have worked as an illustrator and designer
for 20 years. Working with many major design companies and illustrating
for environmental companies, children's book publishers both educational
and fictional and many fashion houses. Since 2004 I have worked mainly
on private and commercial art commissions. I have also created art and
craft workshops for children in local schools and theatres.
I work in
various mediums including charcoal, watercolour, acrylic and oils, but
always mixing my colours with fabric, plaster, glue, resin and wool, to
give my surfaces texture and character. I work from my studio at home, I
paint usually from recollection, sketches and photographic images taken
while out on my travels. A lot of my work tends towards painting the
abstract image, although I feel that all art is a form of abstraction! I
love colour, to express how I feel at the moment of painting, I often
use rich, strong, vibrant colours, these represent ‘my’ personality in
‘my’ paintings.
I live in
Leamington Spa with my wonderful husband and six beautiful children.
I hope you
enjoy looking at my work, I am available for commissions.
