Artist featured in a collection
This piece titled 'Jacob's Ladder' is inspired by the environment in which I live. This depicts a visualisation of Cape Town with sea and mountain views on a crisp summer morning. My hope is that my artwork will illicit a sense of space, time and peace with accents of movement and colour for the viewer to explore. I work with acrylics because it is a fast and responsive medium that can be worked intuitively to build up texture and communicate the emotion of the piece.

South Africa
Originating from Yorkshire, I am now a British infused South African. Prior to my decision to leave my life in England behind, I attended the Guildford School of Art in which I was able to pursue my passion for painting. Despite studying to become an artist, I began to teach adults with severe learning difficulties, a career that was to encompass many years during which painting was put on the back burner. I had married, had a child, then separated and needed to have a regular income. In 1991 I emigrated to South Africa with my partner who had been exiled from South Africa. I had intended to continue my work in within social services but that was not to be. There followed a number of positions including working on Reconstruction and Development with the National Peace Accord and then in Local Government in the run up to and after independent elections. In 2000 I retired from full time work but after a few years I found myself 'helping' a friend run her estate agency business until 2015 when I decided I really would retire and return to painting after 45 years. I now have a studio and a small gallery in partnership with another artist, also in Cape Town.
