About & contact

Welcome

Welcome to my blog, which I will be updating with new paintings and exhibitions as necessary.

Generally, I use a style called hyper-realism.  My materials are oil paints and acrylics.

I paint according to my intuition and feelings.  I cannot tell you today what I will be painting tomorrow.  I find my inspiration everywhere in the living world, with its birds, animals, insects, the sea, as well as boats, costumes, parades, etc.

As I never know what I will come across when out walking, I always have a camera with me to record anything that could make a good painting.

A short biography

I was born in Tonbridge Wells, Kent, England in 1948.  I studied at Bromley College of Further and Higher Education, London, as well as the Hamo Road Art Centre, London.  I gained Diplomas in various subjects, including Art and History.  My first exhibition was in London, England in 1969.  I came to live in Ottignies, Belgium in 1972 and am still living there. I am now a retired Civil Servant.






   Bienvenue

Bienvenue sur mon blog, au fur et à mesure, je le mettrai à jour avec les nouvelles peintures, les expositions etc.

J’utilise un style appelé hyper-réalisme.  Les matériaux utilisés sont la peinture à l’huile et l’acrylique.

Je suis incapable de vous dire aujourd’hui ce que je vais peindre demain.  Je travaille à l’intuition suivant mes sentiments.  Je puise mon inspiration dans tout les sujets: animaux, oiseaux, insectes ainsi que la mer, les bateaux, les costumes, les parades etc.

Lors de mes nombreuses promenades, j’ai toujours un appareil photo pour capturer différentes images. Celles-ci pourraient être susceptibles à me donner l’inspiration, l’aide pour créer une nouvelle peinture, un beau tableau.

Une courte biographie

Je suis née à Tonbridge Wells, dans le Kent en Angleterre, en 1948.  J’ai fait mes études au Collège de Bromley de l’enseignement supérieur à Londres, et au Centre d’Art d’Hamo Road à Londres.  Je suis Diplômée en Art et Histoire. J’ai exposé à Londres dés 1969.  Je suis venue en Belgique à Ottignies en 1972 où je vis toujours. Maintenant, je suis fonctionnaire à la retraite.
