Multi Media artist specialising in highly visual and very colourful artwork, currently working at Milestone Studios and Gallery in New Mills, Derbyshire UK

My main inspiration is colour, it has a dramatic effect on our emotions, it can alter how we feel, it can bring back memories of moments in time. For me, the sea featured highly while growing up, from the crystal clear waters of North Africa to the deep winter green of the Irish Sea. Summers spent on Anglesey with the bright blue July days when the sun is warm and high and the water gleams, evenings are orange and red in the sunset, nights are emerald and black with glints of light in the surf.
