I am passionate about all things print and pattern. I specialise in printmaking and mixed media as this gives me the freedom to combine and explore multiple techniques to create original one-of-a-kind pieces of art. I love to push the boundaries of Gel plate printing, combining and developing new techniques. I first came across a Gelli plate back in 2014 when I was looking for a more accessible form of print while raising my two children. The possibilities of Gel is printing are truly mind blowing. I have spent many years practicing and refining the process of printing with botanicals from my garden. Ten years on and I am still completely absorbed in the process, learning something new each day. I fell in love with Collagraph printing back in Art college, this love has recently reignited as I continue to develop new artwork. Lino print is a safe go to for me as it lends itself to my Graphic style.

When I left art college, I became a Graphic Designer working in packaging design and later worked as a magazine designer for many years. My background in graphic design strongly influences my style but has also provided me with an essential toolbox enabling me to print each of products in-house.

Starting a family also lead to a change in career when I returned to education to complete my teaching degree. I worked in education as an Art and Design teacher for over fifteen years before taking the leap to work for myself in 2022.
