I am a native of Edinburgh, Scotland and began my career in the arts over 20 years. Each of my paintings is emotional in nature and a metaphor for my life’s journey, from Scottish origins, travels around the world, personal struggles and challenges. It embodies the magic and whimsical illusions of a child and the strength and wisdom of a woman with an old soul. My work is intuitive in nature and... very spontaneous and always reflects what is going on inside of me.

I work mainly in mixed media, including acrylics, oils, wax, pearlescent powders, gesso of different consistencies, stained glass pieces, decoupage, and unusual objects I find washed up on the beach. My recent compositions are organic and primitive in nature and reveal a range of emotions from sadness, hope, peace, renewal, right through to euphoric joy.

My most recent collection is called “Holding on and Letting Go”… this collection symbolizes how we hold on to love, memories, respect, boundaries and “Let Go” of outcomes. My paintings show the energy and beauty of the sea… as it ebbs and flows….as it delivers and takes away…. and reminds us of the ever evolving treasures life reveals.
