My paintings are inspired by the beautiful British countryside and are a visual interpretation of nature & its changing emotions through the seasons.

I feel lucky to live deep in the heart of the Staffordshire countryside, surrounded by trees, woodland, rivers, fields and wildlife, so I’m never short of ideas and inspiration; an explosion of flowers tumbling out of the hedgerow, dappled sunlight shimmering through the trees, the burst of joyful colour across the wildflower meadow, a busy bumblebee gathering its nectar from our cottage garden, and the butterflies that seem to constantly flutter in and out of my studio all summer long - it’s no wonder their delicate beauty features heavily in my work. 

I hope my paintings give a sense of being a part of nature’s never ending beauty, keeping the colour of the countryside alive with its amazing changes in texture, light and life.
