We often take the beauty around us for granted and our sense of wonder dims a little. It’s easy to get tangled in daily life that we miss what is really important to us. I paint to capture a moment of awe and bring it to you in a joyful watercolour. A common reaction when people see my work is, they smile. My art can remind you to appreciate life no matter busy your day gets. Painting flora and fauna forces me to see them in a fresh light, to fall in love with their vitality and joie de vivre anew. I hope that I can share that sense of wonder with you through my paintings. I also love to share my enthusiasm through teaching workshops and my fifth book was published in 2023.
