Welcome and thanks for visiting my website!

I’m so grateful for your interest in my work.

I create contemporary original artworks exploring colour, texture, movement and the beauty of imperfection. My work is intuitive and layered, often beginning with an abstract foundation and evolving through expressive marks, unexpected colour and moments of detail.

Each piece is created individually, with the intention of bringing colour and visual interest to elevate a room.

I’m so pleased you’re here, and I hope you find a piece that speaks to you.
