A contemporary animal artist based in Hertford who paints a wide range of animals for both commission and pleasure . Acrylic paint on canvas is her main medium but she also enjoys adding mixed media such as gold and silver leaf.

She feels that animals bring a certain presence to a place or situation and you can't help but admire them. She hopes that her work brings that same intrigue and presence by its scale and attention to detail. She creates paintings that are often larger than life and have an impact when hung in a room.

She firmly believes that the eyes are crucial to drawing in the observer, yet also give a sense of calm and peace to her paintings.
