About

I’m an artist and actor based in North London.

Before having children, I worked as a theatre actor which involved a lot of travel. When I became a mum I stopped touring so much, and missed the world of creativity.

One day my mum presented me with a box of cheap oil pastels which I assume she intended for the kids. I quietly unwrapped them while my youngest was playing with a watering can. I had no paper to hand, so grabbed a scrap of corrugated cardboard from the recycling bin and sat down and drew him. I hadn’t done any drawing since I was at school, but loved it, the quick choices of colour and line to capture his movement. My fine art journey had begun.

I soon took up classes at the Art Stables, Finchley and Hampstead School of Art. I experimented with a wide range of other techniques including left handed drawing, which led to winning the Life Drawing Prize at Hampstead School Of Art. I found my way into a few exhibitions at the Arts Depot, London and before I knew it was holding my first solo show at Lauderdale House, Highgate.

Since then I have continued to work on both portraiture and landscape painting and tried my hand at scultpure and printing in preparation for my current project A Woman’s Place.

Have a look at my Artwork Sale with a range of landscapes and other work for sale. I also offer prints of selected work.

I take commissions for landscapes and portraits. Please go to my Portrait page, and get in contact with any questions.
