My story

I’ve always found joy in the colours and shapes of the natural world – from the turquoise waters of my childhood in Bermuda to the wide open skies of Australia and now the quiet beauty of the English countryside. Over the years, drawing and painting has become my way of exploring and expressing the landscapes, creatures and moments that move me. It’s a practice that’s evolved over time, but one constant has been my love of nature and the stories it tells.

My inspiration

These days, I paint from a pink cottage in the Suffolk countryside, where the changing seasons, my garden in full bloom, coastal walks and local wildlife constantly inspire me. I’m drawn to colour, movement and the small details that make the natural world so alive. Whether it’s the twist of a vine, the curve of a shell, or the light on the water, I try to capture what catches my eye and brings me joy.

“Art is my way of celebrating the world's vibrant beauty and boundless wonders. Each piece I create is a journey into the colours and stories that nature so generously offers us.”
