ARTIST'S STATEMENT
I started my career at the Chelsea School of Art where I pursued a career in graphic design. This lead me to study at Parsons Shool of Design in New York followed by work in Madrid in the fields of publishing and advertising. Back in the UK I took various courses including NLP, an applied psychology and performance coaching enabling people to achieve success. This combined with attending a series of personal development workshops initiated my creative journey. My work is about expressing colour and emotion, rhythm and dynamics. My paintings are aimed at transformation and eliciting unconscious responses in the viewer. I aim to capture the essence of the subject giving more intensity through working unconsciously, often on several paintings at a time and this results in a unique approach for each painting. My subjects are varied as this keeps the creative momentum going. My style varies from abstract to expressionist. My art is displayed in the UK and Spain.

I run creative workshops for groups and individuals using the experience I gained teaching NLP and coaching combined with creativity thinking techniques.
