About me and my work
I am an artist who is inspired by the living form, colour and texture. I came to art later in life after leaving a career in nursing to live in India for three years. It was during this time that I first picked up a paint brush, being so inspired by the colour and scenes around me. I worked with an Indian artist. On my return to England I set up and still run a smallholding, where I have a variety of animals who are a constant inspiration to me.
I still think India influences me through the colours and textures in my work, using techniques such as collage, cropped images and abstraction to express a range of emotions.
I recently studied fine art at Post Graduate level at Norwich University of Art
