About The Artwork

This painting was created when I realised after many years of being abused emotionally and physically in all aspects of my life, my abusers had gained access to the very structure that was meant to help me and assist me in developing myself as a happy productive adult. Yes I was well educated, yes I had enormous potential, but how and why could anyone hate me enough to kill me slowly in the most 'hidden in plain sight' of ways? My doctors then began abusing me too. The glee in their faces as they gave me more and more bad news, thinking that maybe I was unable to gauge the situation at all. To recover I had to physically ditch everyone and everything, with their abuse becoming more and more intense as they lost their grip on me. The slander I endured was disgusting from those around me who I had been a slave to. Unable to do anything about their behaviour towards me, I became the recluse that they wanted me to be. In some respects this aided them in perpetuating myths that are too horrific and abusive to go into here. I am stronger than I thought, I recovered to do what I want, even though its a struggle against an unsupported ideology at times. Those who really love me know I am more than, not less than. I want everyone who is suffering from domestic and relationship abuse, to know that ultimately this must be happening because it must and it can and must stop. My abusers simply dislike my attributes. They love to hate. I cannot change them, even though they try to destroy me. You will be the greater person for knowing that, even though it often doesn't feel like it at times, especially when your life is in tatters, and your dreams have sailed away. Make new dreams and live in hope.

I originate from a small mining village in Southwest Wales where my father was a Coal miner. I spent most of my childhood drawing and reading, I escaped into my art, and it's the place I feel most secure in. After an education in art I became a single mother and diversified into other careers as well as art, which has given me invaluable and varied insights. I live in South West London.
