Her subject matter ranges from her love of Art Nouveau and choreographed photography from the late 19th Century through to this time with an emphasis on vintage, forgotten and ‘once loved’.

ACCESS GALLERY

It reflects and explores the fleeting beauty of nature’s bounty in ‘flora, frutta and vegetalia’ in acrylics and pastels, and the joy of handcrafted ceramic forms with organic additions which are in harmony with the representations of good food harvested from their gardens.
