About the Artist

I am artist who is passionate about nature and slow living. My work aims to capture those intangible and fleeting feelings we all have when we are out in nature. I’m a mother of five and no stranger to the busyness and pressures of life. I did not always have the balance right, but changing my habits of attention, slowing down and finding the moments of beauty everyday has bought me peace. This has deeply influenced my painting practice. Through my work I try to reflect the quiet beauty of nature. 

My aesthetic is pared-back but deeply evocative. I create atmospheric pieces for those who value nature, simplicity and timeless design. Through my work I want to evoke a sense of calm, creating a reflective, evocative and hopeful space for any home. 

My Inspiration

Nature has always been a profound source of inspiration for me—the elements, the play of light, and the ever-changing seasons. Growing up in rural England, I spent much of my childhood outdoors, surrounded by the natural world. One of my most vivid memories is the scent of freshly cut grass and the soft glow of late afternoon sunlight on the green fields near my home.  I work in a beautiful eco art home studio (insulated with sheep’s wool!)  created by Okopod, nestled in the corner of our woodland garden. This return to a workspace surrounded by trees has been a significant source of inspiration for my current practice.

These are some quotes from writers and poets that inspire me:

“I have felt a presence that disturbs me with the joy of elevated thoughts; a sense sublime of something far more deeply interfused, whose dwelling is the light of setting suns, and the round ocean, and the living air, and the blue sky, and in the mind of man...” (William Wordsworth Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey, 1798)

"This world.....needs to be reminded that... the blue spring mist that makes an ugly street look beautiful is just as real a thing as the street itself" (Elizabeth Goodge).

'The Heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the works of His Hands" (Psalm 19:1).
