Commissions
​
Realising someone's vision is such an exciting and satisfying project, so if you have an idea for an affordable commission, do drop me a line.
Examples of recent commissioned pieces.

There is nothing quite like the thrill - or the challenge! - of plein air painting, so I am out and about as much as possible in the summer months. Living in Sussex by the sea, I am spoilt for choice when it comes to stunning landscapes. I also work from reference materials in the studio, most recently embarking on an artistic journey into outer space inspired by the astounding astrophotographs readily available on the internet.
​
​
The Feminine, the Sacred and our Blessed Earth are the dominant themes of my figurative paintings, where the lines between Pagan and Christian iconography often blur. My two environmental paintings, 'Tipping Point' and 'Choke', are an indictment of single-use plastics. I recently enjoyed producing small drawings of British fauna, while recovering from Covid; whereas my very latest figurative works feature the domestic cat set against its artistic and genetic antecedents: cave paintings of big cats.
