This is me

After studying Fashion Design my professional design path began working for a traditional British company, Marshals Fine Leather Goods. Designing, developing, pattern cutting and sample making hand crafted bespoke leather goods from exotic leathers including Lizard, Crocodile and Ostrich.

 

Moving to my next appointment as in house designer for H.Bronnley and Co. Ltd. Soaps and Toiletries, began my long association with Body Care and Home Fragrance. Initiating and presenting concept ideas, market research and product analysis, through all aspects of product development, concluding in the production of print ready artwork for multiple substrates utilising appropriate print processes.

The Artist

I started to take art lessons ten years ago;  Mixed Media, Life Drawing, Portrait Painting, Dry Point Printing and Sculpture. I've also studied with The Florence Academy, Life Drawing and Plein Air Landscape Painting and have been tutored by Peter Keegan and Gino Ballentyne. During this time I've enjoyed studying various artists and painting techniques and worked on developing my own style.
