Artist Statement

I have been painting for 4 years after taking it up during lockdown and I find it very relaxing (sometimes!). I like to use acrylic paints and also enjoy drawing portraits at West Hallam Portrait Group. I enjoy painting various different subjects such as landscapes and animals. As I develop my own style I would like to try to capture the contrasts of sunlight and shade in landscapes. I feel that I am still at the beginning of what is hopefully a long and fulfilling journey.
