About the Artist

I have drawn and painted since childhood. I studied Creative Arts at Manchester University UK where I was able to explore theatre, writing and art. For the past twenty years I homeschooled my children and taught art at a variety of homeschool co-operatives. After moving to Charlottesville VA in 2016, I returned to school and graduated as a Registered Nurse in 2020. I now work at UVA Medical Center. While I continued to paint through all seasons of my life I am now focusing on my work as an artist. I am excited to explore the beautiful Central Virginia region and share my love of this land in my paintings.
