I am a freelance artist with a multi-disciplinary training in art, design and textiles. My work experience to date has been predominantly within the arts and retail and I have several years of experience in visual merchandising. I have succeeded in carving out my own art practice and career, enjoying successes in commission-based work and taking part in exhibitions. I have a keen creative eye and a skill for thinking outside the box. I am a warm and approachable person with a proactive and positive nature. I have worked within a range of retail and organisational settings and with a wide variety of products from jewelry to home ware. I am a keen learner, who likes a challenge and will approach any task with professionalism and enthusiasm.
