About me
Hi! I create artwork that combines pattern, figurative and ornamental elements using delineated forms. It is generally colourful and imaginative leaning towards decorative design. Mixed media is my preferred method combining gouache, coloured pencils, watercolour, ink and metallics.
Projects

    Floretta Ditsy TeapotsCharming vintage-style teapots with a ditsy floral design. 'Floretta' was developed from a doodle I discovered in an old sketchbook.

  • Papillons Précieux
    Papillons PrécieuxCreated for the Advanced Track of the Make It In Design Winter School (2024) in response to a brief titled 'Metamorphosis'. ------- Butterflies spend much of their lives in transformation. They were a popular motif amongst Art Nouveau artisans who transformed them from fleeting to eternal beauties via the art of enamelling and gem setting. This was the element of metamorphosis that I took for my design. There are three colourways - topaz, emerald and amethyst. ------- Hand-painted/digital
