Neutral Buoyancy Painting

I am a Leicestershire based artist working from my studio in the countryside of Foxton, near Market Harborough, England, UK. I lived & worked in cities around the world for many years as a designer in the fashion industry, living in in London and spending long periods in South East Asia before settling back in Leicestershire with my Dutch husband & our 3 sons. I have always been painting in my head and seen life through the eyes of a painter, disturbing me when I’m sleeping and distracting me when I’m driving! When I finally had more time to paint after raising my family it was a great relief to everyone when I was able to put my thoughts & feelings back into paint! Colour is my passion & the ways that sunlight and water change it are my fascination and absorbing distraction. Painting is my meditation. I create my own sunlit cheerful world in my studio & spend my time challenging myself daily to be the best painter I can be. I have a large studio on Swingbridge Street in Foxton where I can work on several pieces at once. I exhibit widely and have had several very enjoyable solo exhibitions. I sell original paintings & a limited number of prints of my paintings online, here & on all the main social media sites. My work is now in many private collections around the UK, in The Netherlands, France, Germany & Italy. Hens, or chooks as they are called further afield, seem to have an international appeal and although I do paint many other things I always seem to return to them.
