My main area of interest is portraiture, my preferred mediums being pencil, pastel, charcoal and oil.

I took a Foundation Course in Fine Art at Southampton Institute in preparation for my degree which I never got around to starting. After a lengthy absence from drawing of some 15 years I am now rediscovering the joy of drawing and now draw purely for my own pleasure as a hobby. I am a little lazy though and only draw occasionally (after a couple of drinks usually!!).

I am employed full time, I am a mum and wife and live near Glastonbury in Somerset, UK.
