I paint flowers, butterflies and birds in watercolour sometimes on unusual papers i.e. Indian handmade papyrus and also on vellum. I very much enjoy trying to capture the delicacy and details of my subjects.

Since I was a child I've been drawn to nature. Taking up wild flower photograpy in my late forties reawakened the pleasures of my childhood walks. Next came trying to capture the subjects with watercolour, and with the help of some expert tuition I began to get the results I wanted to achieve. Twenty years on I enjoy many challenging but therapeutic hours painting, also helping a small group of like-minded artists to get as much enjoyment as I've had.

Each year I look forward to exhibiting with the 4 Seasons Art group in the lovely gallery at Exbury, also in London with the Society of Botanical Artists and at Mottisfont Abbey with the Society of Floral Artists.
