Art

The bulk of my work is commissions, specialising in watercolour. I make portraits of children, adults, couples, families and pets from photos provided to me. I paint decorative pieces for wedding invitations and websites, restaurant menus, all catered to the client’s individual visions and requests. I paint with other materials too, mainly murals, oils and acrylics.

I am very drawn to the human face, particularly the eye, and how they are meant to be the keys to recognition, deep connection and expression. Yet in today’s digital world we are exposed to an overstimulating ocean of faces. I am drawn to imagery where the face, the eye and the written word are fractured and frantically repeated, until their status as reliable vectors for expression become drawn into question.

Teaching is my greatest passion. As Head of Art in a school in Kensington, London, I teach history of art, practical art classes, and run extra-curricular art clubs for all ages. I am available for private tuition upon request. I am interested in art therapy for adults and hope to integrate it into my yoga retreats.
