She works with in oils and acrylic with an intensely vivid palette and inventive mark-making. It is important to Sophie that she feels a strong connection to a place when painting it. Most recently she has been working on garden paintings and visiting Northern Ireland where she created a series of paintings based on the verdant landscape of her paternal family.
Later this year, she is invited to be artist in residence in Goa, India to immerse herself in different landscapes and create a new body of work to show in 2019.

After spending many years working as a Governess in Europe and Moscow, she decided to concentrate fully on developing her artistic abilities.
