My original coastal paintings can be viewed at the Brownston Gallery Modbury, the Cider Press Gallery in Dartington, and Gallery360 in Plymouth, or in my studio by appointment.  Some paintings have been reproduced as limited edition giclee prints and are available at the Brownston and Cider Press galleries.  I work mostly in watercolour, but oils and pastels are being added to my practice.

I studied at Harrow Art School and went on to have a successful career in London as a graphic designer and illustrator.  After a second mid-life career in clinical nutrition, a painting holiday in Scotland reignited my passion for the British landscape and watercolours in particular.  I was thrilled to win two watercolour awards in the 2021 Artist Magazine Open Competition, The Daler Rowney watercolour prize and the TALP exhibition award. I have exhibited in Surrey, the Contemporary Art Fair in Newbury, Patching’s Art Centre in Nottingham, and locally at the Harbour House gallery, Kingsbridge and I regularly take part in the South Hams Arts Trail. Greeting cards of my paintings are also available in Ashby’s near Malborough, and Salcombe Yacht Club.

‘The countryside has always been a source of pleasure for me, whether it’s a local dog walk or travelling further afield to hike the wilder areas of the British Isles. Simply being immersed in beautiful landscape – whatever the weather – is pure food for the soul. I love the luminosity and serendipitous nature of watercolour and am drawn towards landscapes with unusual light, or mists that drift through open spaces or play with large distant horizons. My goal is to explore both Dartmoor and the coastal paths of Devon, and do more en plein air work.‘
