I am obsessional about colour and pattern; as a result my work is an exploration of meticulous detail and an explosion of bright colour. Things I love illustrating - animals and wildlife, allowing me to indulge in my passion for the environment & natural science, as well as whiling away the hours creating curious characters interwoven with whimsical narratives. Above all else I enjoy drawing and creating work that allows me to escape into the world of my imagination, a place that makes me smile and in turn I hope makes others smile also.
I run an independent lino and screen print studio in Liverpool called The Paper Moon, so my screen printed product line is always expanding. I also create a range of digitally printed cards and illustrations to replicate the watercolour and mixed media strand of my work. Further to this I also produce a range of mugs and ceramic items using both sublimation and decals. All of my products are created and printed by myself to ensure the highest quality.
As well as creating personal work for exhibitions and products for my Etsy shop and Arts markets, I also work on a variety of commissions which have included; a children’s book, sculpture painting projects for Wild in Art and designs for the children’s section of The New Birmingham Library.
I am hugely passionate about teaching art to others and host a huge range of community workshops, create education arts resources, often linking up with cultural institutions, educational hubs, art & music festivals.
I am always keen to hear new ideas for projects and am available for commissions and exhibitions, just get in touch via the "contact me" page.
