About The Artwork

This black and white illustrative line art was created by combining various graphic tools such as posca pens, fine liners and charcoal. Titled 'Tour of the Damned', this old artwork is a piece I created back in 2012. It has been exhibited in several parts of the UK. The Tour of the Damned draws on goth graphic novels, filmmakers Tim Burton and Guillermo Del Toro. It is an exploration of both life's pleasures and its cruelties—which tend to exploit anyone's inner voice.The warrior marches forth through the graveyard, armed with a spear and holding an intestinal balloon of monsters. It may seem like a negative image, but I see it as something positive—a fight that will conquer all bad energies. This painting depicts the liberation that comes with waking up from a bad dream and finally being able to leave your problems behind. Although we may interpret this piece in many ways, it seems that viewers can relate to the feelings and questions represented here. Some will find this artwork scary or sad, but others might see its humorous side! If you are moved by the piece then I have succeeded in what I set out to do. This artwork is striking—the more time spent looking at it reveals even deeper depths of mystery within. I am including the frame with this piece, although you may want to reframe it. Please note that while I have tried my best to keep them clean, the corners of its wooden interior are slightly worn due to being hung on walls during exhibitions.

I never really know what to write, or even how to  talk about myself especially when it comes to ones own topic.   So I will keep this  brief. I am a  UK-based artist who earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Communication from Monash University in Melbourne, Australia in 1998. ​ I travelled a lot, lived in Australia , which was my home for 7 years.  Moved  back  to the UK and subsequently moved around the Southcoast area such as Brighton, Lymington, Southampton, Isle of Wight until settling back to Bournemouth.   I became a Teacher in 2002, and taught Design and Art at Brockenhurst College for 6 years. In 2016 I went to college and  studied counselling and received a diploma in art therapy.   During my training, I had a small business in Pokedown  for three years, in which I  sold and exhibited Art, made coffees and  sold Vintage clothing with my dear friend  Rob. This is where I started my Art therapy workshops for  several charities and non profit organisations., such as B'EAT, BCHA,  Richmond Fellowship, Rise and so on.   ​ I have been fortunate to have exhibited work in locations across UK , including Brighton where I lived for several years, Bournemouth and  London, I  also exhibited my work at Brush Gallery  in Singapore. ​ Over the years I have  sold many  works to collectors around the world. One particular piece is owned by a well-known figure from the band The Jam. I was fortunate to have also  worked on  several commissioned  works for  branding  US reality  shows such as  Gas Monkey, and Orange County Choppers. I have also worked with record labels such as Azuli records and generated album covers for Space Ibiza. ​ In the last few years I have been primarily focusing on painting and exploring my own creative techniques.  Playing on the quirky and whimsical  narrative  and  utilising my  intuition  when it comes to creating my pieces.  ​ I do not like to  limit my style,  but rather I see  it as a journey of self-expression. I love  combining  textures and blending  vivid colours together, and most of the time I have no idea where the final piece will take me, I just tend to carry on till I say 'It's Done..'  ​ Once again Thank you for visiting my Saatchi Studio. .  ​ I am available for commissions, exhibitions and purchases.  If you want to ask me anything please use the contact page.  ​ I will be happy to discuss anything ( well not anything ) you understand what I mean ..
