To draw and paint is a passion in my life and I have created art as long as I can remember. I am self taught but have done lessons with two amazing award winning artists to further improve my art. I also spend lots of time reading everything art related I can find, from colour theory to composition. When I’m creating a portrait its like time stands still and I can draw for hours totally fascinated with the artwork I’m creating. To put it simply – I love drawing and letting my imagination go free. My main inspiration comes from my appreciation for nature and animals. It can be the soft texture of cat or dog fur, feathers of a wild bird, the vivid colours of animals and plants.
