Artistic background

So it all began in 2010, all thanks to one cow kissing a canvas and a bonkers friend ...
"After having worked for many years in marketing at the Morgan Motor Company, then raising my children, my career as a full time artist began in 2010 ... all thanks to a huge painting of a mad cow 'kissing the canvas' commissioned by a bonkers friend. Other people saw the cow painting and commissioned more ...
I began selling at art markets and events, developed my own website and online shop and have been very fortunate to secure numerous gallery and shop representations over the years. My days are now filled with private commissions and gallery work, as well as fulfilling online orders and welcoming visitors to my little home studio shop in North Worcester.
Hard work and a genuine love of what I do saw me through those early morning art markets (often freezing), busy open studios (much warmer) and exhibitions at several UK galleries (wine).
Best known for my highland cow paintings and other humorous characterful animal work, my motivation is kept alive by the happy reactions when people see my work and then the painting titles ... raising a smile or two is the best motivation."
