As a mixed media artist, I am eager to learn new creative techniques to bring fresh ideas to my workshops. Nature is an important influence on my art practice – painting by the sea, listening to nature sounds or calming music, and I have recently started incorporating organic materials which all transport me creatively. I also like using acrylic and water colour paints.

I enjoy facilitating relaxing group and one-to-one sessions and I have worked with a variety of diverse groups, including charities, community organisations, hospital patients, the elderly, and residents of care homes. My sessions aim to provide a comfortable environment with hot drinks and the opportunity to create, converse, or just be. My goal is to create an inviting place for self-expression while promoting the advantages and joy of artmaking.
