My Profile

I live in Warwickshire and study part-time at The Open College of Arts for my Bachelor of Fine Art degree. I also work remotely as a diversity leader for an IT company in London. I’ve always been interested in art and design. I studied interior design at college and I am self-taught in Cad design and went on to work in furniture design with John Lewis and Hammonds for 5 years.
I’ve always been a hard worker, but a heart infection in 2015 slowed me down and eventually led to my diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. This has an impact on the quantity of my work as I have to pace and take longer breaks than most artists in order to to manage the chronic pain associated with it.
I enjoy experimenting with many techniques and mediums, ranging from abstract acrylics to coffee and charcoal.

I am also neurodivergent, and I find that creating art allows me to untangle the fabric of my thoughts and ideas by bringing them to life.
My themes can shift dramatically as I seek variety; therefore my work could be playful watercolour flowers or a massive charcoal drawing of Hogwarts. I find it therapeutic to switch between concepts.

I love the smell of coffee, so it is an excellent medium to work with.
