​
My work has been exhibited in a wide variety of venues throughout Scotland covering the prestigious Royal Scottish Academy Gallery in Edinburgh to some more 'earthy' venues!
Find me in nature either collecting materials for mixed media art, painting or sketching at my local life drawing class.
What type of art do I do?
I am a mixed media artist based in Scotland. My paintings are rich in texture and often focus on the subjects of nature and dance. Layers of dried flowers, handmade paper, inks and much more can often be found in my artwork.
​
​
Where do I gain my inspiration?
The colours, patterns and textures found in nature give me everything I need to create my art. Painting cityscapes showing the interplay between nature and old urban life are also a passion of mine.

What will you find in this website?
Alongside a gallery of my own work, and the latest dates for exhibitions, you will find a whole selection of tutorials, lessons and art challenges dedicated to other creatives like yourself. I am so happy to be able to pass on what I have learned from being an artist for over 20 years!
