Since retiring and moving to Port Stanley from London, I have been able to focus more time on my painting. While I have tried many art forms over the years including glass, pottery, quilting, embroidery, Zentangle, watercolours and oils, painting in acrylics is my current challenge.

I am inspired by mother nature, colour and texture.  I’m happy to paint landscapes, people, animals whether they’re at my doorstep or from far away.
