I fell in love with Scotland in my teens and have been visiting the West Coast on and off all my life. I now live on the beautiful Isle of Bute with my husband Stephen and we are making our home in Port Bannatyne.

I have been a full time artist for four years, working in mixed media on a range of materials including canvas, paper, wood and metal. My work is strongly influenced by the colours of the landscape and the constantly changing skies. The view across Kames Bay from our studio in the Old Post Office is a constant source of inspiration and I have painted the scene over and over.
