About Me
i have been painting since i was 3 years old and continued all my life
using mixed media, inks, oil and or acrylics and charcoal approaching painting and drawing with energy and passion.
I like to take inspiration from what I see in which ever Environment I am in and the general world around me .
combining my Inner emotional world.
I take my influences from subjects I feel drawn to such as 18 c Victorian and Italian artworks and architecture .
I feel compelled to make images using bold marks and bright colours.
Art is the one place I am free to be me without expectations or limitations .
