Art washes from the soul the dust of everyday life
— Pablo Picasso
 

Welcome! I’m so glad that you’re here.

I am a mixed media artist creating colourful and vibrant art with a hidden twist!

As an absolute and utter colour junkie, I have always been fascinated by Graffiti Art. I also adore all things old and battered that have a tale to tell! Old buildings with paint peeled walls, historical sites and vintage ephemera…..materials, letters, postcards and photographs. I’m fascinated by the hidden layers of what came before. The mystery of what might be underneath. Connections to the past, to society and to other cultures. I love to take forgotten things and try to breathe new life into them.

My art always evolves naturally and takes me along for the ride. I start with a seed of an idea and then allow it to build and flourish as we journey along together. This way I feel that it’s truly mine. Our destination is always a bit of an unknown!

I’ve always known my inner artist ever since I was a child. I studied into higher education but then everyday life made us lose touch with each other for a while. A creative ember has always glowed away inside of me until I recently allowed it to take light again.

I work intuitively, letting my materials lead the way. An amalgamation of modern colours and old finds are twisted together with my signature hand stitched details. There’s also sometimes a sprinkle of sequins thrown in for good measure and added depth. These features all blend to give a beautiful, multi dimensional look that changes with the light of the day. It also looks great under a fairy light tor three!

I currently work from my home in Bedfordshire, UK.
