Finding beauty in the ordinary

I hope you enjoy exploring the paintings on this site. If you have any questions about my artwork, please don't hesitate to contact me.

My primary goal is to discover beauty in the ordinary and capture it in watercolour paint. You'll notice that I love to paint light and shadow. Watercolour is, to me, the best medium for this.

Art Journal

In 2024 I started keeping a journal of my art. This started as I kept a record of notes etc when I was completing an art course, ‘Find your joy’ with artist, Louise Fletcher.

When the course ended I continued keeping a record of all paintings I completed, along with notes about them. This video includes pages from the journal.
