Hello there! I am an Eastbourne-based artist who works across painting, ceramics, textiles and animation. I love to create art about the feminine experience, the mind and spirituality. 

I graduated from Kingston university in 2023 with a degree in Illustration Animation. For my degree show I presented BH1959, a mixed media installation that reimagined the life of a Roman-era woman discovered on the Sussex Downs in the 1950s, known as the Beachy Head woman or BH1959. The work was a form of speculative archaeology, imagining how life may have been for a young woman living in Roman Britain. 

My current focus is painting, specifically portraits with abstract elements/ lettering. I also adore creating ceramic and textile pieces to compliment my paintings or act as standalone works. Mixing techniques is at the heart of my practice. 

Alongside my studio practice, I trade at independent markets, selling ceramics and art prints. I also love creating textile sculptures and soft toys.
