Things you might like to know ...........
I am an artist and surface pattern designer. I have had a keen interest in drawing and painting from an early age, when I was inseparable from my sketch books and pencils. I left school with my art GCSE and followed that up with a BTEC in general art and design and a HND in textiles. I have since been working as a soft furnishing designer, whilst keeping up my art work in my free time. I love to sketch either by copying something in front of me or whatever appears in my head at the time. I also love to paint or use mixed media to create my canvases. I paint predominantly in oil or acrylic but i also love working in coloured pencil. My inspiration comes from the environment that surrounds me. I love nothing more than to capture a beautiful scene, blossoming flower or gracious animals on my camera to then take to my easel. I like to work this way so that I can decide what to paint whenever the mood takes me. I take inspiration from the impressionist painters especially Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh.
