Ruth Breen

I live in Staffordshire, but think of myself as a Londoner. I am married to Mark and we move from London about 30 years ago. I love living in Staffordshire. My paintings have really started after the first lockdown last year when I discovered painting with arylic paints. I am self taught and believe mistakes should stay in your paintings as they are part of the creative feel. I am dyslexic so often see things slightly differently. My best paintings are ones that will just not leave me alone and I have to paint them
