My journey with art is fairly new. it only began about a year ago in 2020, when the lockdown was imposed.. My then 4 year old daughter would have me sit down with her and draw. Every day, we drew. Her scribbles with colour were fascinating for me, inspiring me to look at colour,form, texture, composition afresh, through a renewed sense of freedom.I discovered art through her eyes. I learnt so much from watching her.

Through the lockdown I immersed myself into this magical other world of colour. Painting on any piece of paper with my daughter's crayons. From these humble beginnings it's been quite a journey to selling some of my canvas prints. Ever grateful for this journey life has taken me on.
