Watercolours, pastels, oils, pen and wash

"I was born in Gloucestershire but now live in Northamptonshire.

I started painting as therapy to help recover from a serious illness and soon got hooked!

I enjoy plein air painting, being in the landscape helps me connect with the environment and hopefully capture the essence of what inspires me.

I enjoy painting holidays abroad where I keep sketchbooks using pen and watercolour to capture my experiences. I also attend workshops – great fun where one can experiment and lots can be learnt.

More recently I have moved onto painting animals, a new challenge that I enjoy enormously and attending oil painting school to further my skills there.

I paint in watercolour, pen and wash, pastel, oil and occasionally acrylics, choosing the media I think most suited to the subject. I also do commissions."
