The practice and appreciation of art, for me is a form of escapism and a way to make sense of the world around me. My artist journey began six years ago when I discovered a local art group, although I have always enjoyed being creative. I am very much still in an experimental stage, but mainly I use gouache, watercolour, ink and graphic markers. I am often amazed at the unusual places that beauty can be found and I find inspiration in my everyday life, my experiences and through what I see and hear, including; colour, shape, architecture, nature, people and the vast array of emotion humans experience over a lifetime.
