Artistic background

I am a semi-acrylic artist living in Northern Ireland with a painterly style and a love for nature. Much of my life up to now has been spent living overseas, mainly in South Africa Having returned home in 2021, I am now surrounded by a different unique beauty-the patchwork of green fields, the windswept landscapes and the variety in the changing seasons that I missed being so far away
My paintings are an emotive reaction to the beauty in the land, sea and sky I see around me and my work is characterised by unique markings and scratches and layers of paint.
I am also drawn to abstraction and enjoy distilling shape and form using a simplified palette to highlight emotion and memories.
Why do I paint? I do what I love and find great enjoyment in creating a painting, mixing the colours and seeing it come alive on the canvas. Above all I want my work to bring joy and inspiration to others

Interests

As a qualified French and German teacher, I love learning and teaching languages and meeting people from different backgrounds and cultures. Much of my money to date has been spent travelling and on art supplies and as a self-confessed coffee snob, on great coffee. I also love the great outdoors and enjoy a good romp with my beloved cockapoo Migo.
