I'm an artist based in Market Harborough. I returned to painting about 12 years ago, following an absence due to work and young family commitments.
I studied with a local Northants artist a day a week for a couple of years. It was during this time that I found my preferred medium - oil paint on canvas. Since then I have continued to experiment and develop my style and I identified what I enjoy painting most - primarily the natural world and animals. I particularly enjoy painting trees as you might have guessed!
While sometimes my paintings take on a more realistic depiction of the subject matter (this is the case in my pet portraits) at other times my artwork is somewhat sentimental, responding to memories or imagined scenes.
I held a solo exhibition at Rugby Art Gallery and Museum in 2019 but then Covid put a temporary halt on momentum. I recently opened my art studio as part of Northants Open Studios and also exhibited at Lamport Hall during September 2023. Over the summer I was excited to take part as a Wildcard in the Sky Arts series "Landscape Artist of the Year" - a wonderful experience.

Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss a landscape or pet portrait commission.
