I am a retired chiropodist and acupressurist, but for many years in my spare time, I have been painting and drawing, working in oils, acrylics and recently, in pastel pencil. I also enjoy creating wirework and designing and finishing wooden jewellery boxes.

Having owned, ridden and worked with horses for most of my life, I enjoy drawing and painting horses, but I love being out in nature and sketching wildlife.

My artwork has, in the past, been exhibited nationally and I was lucky enough to have a picture selected for an exhibition in Vienna.
