With over 17 years of experience, I specialize in creating bespoke, high-quality artwork that brings ideas to life. My work blends traditional watercolour techniques with the convenience of high-quality digital files, making it easy for you to integrate the artwork into your projects while preserving its organic natural charm.
I've had the privilege of collaborating with a diverse range of clients—from small independents to global brands. My artwork has been commissioned for magazines, books, packaging, point-of-sale displays, websites, stationery, homeware, apparel, and more. Whether working with publishers, manufacturers, or design studios, I pride myself on delivering not just exceptional artwork but also a seamless, professional experience.
Passionate about storytelling through illustration and pattern design, I love helping brands and businesses communicate their message in a unique and visually compelling way.

- Sound of the ocean�� Hear the Ocean �� Created for @ourplanetweek, inspired by the beautiful prompt “Hear the Ocean” � Who else remembers holding a seashell to your ear as a child, amazed by the sound of the sea whispering inside? That wonder stayed with me — and it inspired this painting. I imagined seashell headphones, carrying the ocean’s magic wherever you go... Dolphins leaping, fish swimming, waves spilling out in a cascade of life and sound. This piece is my tribute to the endless beauty, mystery, and life
- Flying High watercolour paintingMy attempt to capture the freedom of flight-a weightless, soul-lifting moment. Swallows, sifts and house martins dance above the trees, soaring through a blue sky dappled with sunlight and soft clouds. I hope you can feel what it might be like to ride the wind-to feel the air beneath your wings?
