Welcome!
I am delighted that you are here with me taking the time to look at my paintings. I have painted all my life, and I paint for the joy it gives me and for the wellbeing it brings to me. In times of difficulty painting has helped me to express my feelings, releasing emotions to help me find serenity and calm.
I am in love with nature and all its wonders... the warmth it offers so freely, the smells of meadow due in the mornings, and of summer fields, the wildlife, its colors galore and beauty are unlimited, and I love to create and translate what I see and feel onto canvas.
I love to bathe in, the rich colours of poppies and sunflowers, or the colours of a
wild meadow, to the more subtle calm colours of fields of wheat. Breath in the autumnal forests, when the air is damp and the odours from the forest floor rise into the canopies above me, of leaves turning into flaming fiery reds, oranges, to yellows and golds, all the colours of an artiste’s palette!
I experiment with different mediums accentuating different textures and like to use organic materials like sand and leaves in my paintings, bringing it to life on the canvas, giving movement to trees, making the light dance from tree to tree, bringing a painting to life. So that my story of colours, the joy and serenity I had felt, transmits into my paintings and in turn brings yourself an experience to love in your own space, whether it be in your home or in a workplace, so you feel connected to nature always. To bring brightness and light into your home, or a burst of energy with vibrant colours to energize a space! I know that I feel a sense of well-being when painting so I’d like to think that I can help others too. At times my life has been painted in shades of black, as has many others have, so therefore I love to enrich my paintings with vibrant joyful colours.
My abstract paintings are always born from strong emotions, spontaneous movements of my brush or palette knives which I feel from within, rather than an experience from being surrounded by nature.
They are creations from another source of energy built on a strength to survive, energy to drive and a force to adhere to giving strength to others with powerful colours and often strokes of contrasting directions. These wall art paintings are loaded with energy and hope, bringing life and happiness into a space.
Abstract wall art can marry hand in hand with rustic, Bohemian styles. It adds a Modern Eclectic touch to their opposite, creating a colourful visual interest, an unexpected touch to a space of simplicity.
I hope that my canvas printings make you smile, bring you joy, see the beauty in nature, feeling calmness and to be able to celebrate the true gifts of nature that are so precious to us all especially now in its’ time of survival, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for having read and listened to me.
