Inspired by nature, made by hand.

Welcome to my website where you will find images of current work and workshops.
I work with a deep connection to the natural world and I am inspired by plant and animal encounters, supported and enhanced by lunar and plantary shifts. If you would like to join me please do not hesitate to sign up to my Newsletter. You can also drop in and find me on Substack.
NEW FOR 2026 - Art and Soul Retreats.
I have teamed up with the beautiful Maison des Fréres Leglise to offer a luxurious creative retreat, deep in the heart of Gascony. Come and explore your creativity, in a supportive and immersive environment. Spend days journalling, meditating, and creating work in response to the beautiful gardens and countryside, and the evenings spent relaxing and eating wonderful local cuisine.







A Year at my Workbench - A seasonal guide to creativity, is now available...
I am so excited to be able to offer a workbook that compliments the Art and Soul Retreats experience.
In A Year at my Workbench - A Seasonal Guide to Creativity, I show how the energies of the season influence my creativity. Fully illustrated in colour, this spiral bound A4 guide will be a perfect companion on your workbench. With step by step colour photos and top tips, it provides a clear window into my studio.
If you find the dark of the winter hard to motivate or the summer exhausting, welcome to a gentle guide that will help explain and support these energies. Through little activites and thoughtful insights I hope to provide an insight into how the rythms of the year can support your creativity.
