My Background

When I was in preschool, my favorite time of day was when I was allowed to draw and paint. As I got older, this love never faded and eventually I went on to university to study art and design.

I take my inspiration from the people around me, nature and memories from my childhood. I love learning and exploring new techniques and colour theories. I am always pushing myself outside of my comfort zone and find that my discomfort results in better painting. 

I enjoy trying new techniques, subject matter and playing with colour. Trying things that I have not done before really helps me progress as an artist. At the end of 2023 I had become bored with the direction I was taking and decided it was time for a change. 

My goal was to try poraiture, something that scared the life out of me, however I was determined to give it a go and so set myself a goal of one portrait a month for twelve months.
