Artistic background
I am an intuitive painter, who creates vibrant, bold works that highlight the beauty of imperfection through visible layering, expressive brush work and mark-making. My painterly style, use of line, exploration of colour and shape are defining elements in my work. My inspiration comes from my emotions, surroundings, nature and travels.Then I mix it with my imagination using a pallet of bright colours and expressive energy. That feeling never left me and still today I work with the idea of making something from nothing. It is fascinating, entirely insular and personal, but speaks of today and time, and is a female voice. The first drawings and scribbles are stiff, then after I am relaxed enough, they begin to be playful. I work without judging or editing and it seems to pour out.
In the end, I just love to do art.
I share my life between England and Portugal.
I've done many art exhibitions in England and Portugal and I'm always involved in creative projects. Some of my pieces are in private collections in the UK, Portugal and in the United States.
