My self-portrait
My self-portrait
I have 2 teenage sons who do influence my art. Starting with them as babies and going down the Peter Rabbit line. I have now progressed to Camper vans and holidays in Newquay. This has also reflected on my landscapes or range of cottages. Skateboarding is another one on the teenage agenda that I am working on. I do find that as my life changes these influences change my art.
I live in the countryside with animals to numerous to mention but there are a great deal of chicken pictures in my portfolio. Again I find them so humorous in their characters they are hard to resist. Likewise the sheep I am surrounded by with their silly attitude to life.

My career background is a retail one which does help with selling and marketing my own work. I really enjoy talking to potential customers and sell a great deal at craft fairs. I like the idea of people buying original art instead of mass produced posters and try to do my best to convert them. I try to take my art to people who wouldn't think about going into an art exhibition but once converted are thrilled with what they can buy.
