Statement

Struggling with my mental health after a personal traumatic experience I re-discover my love for creating art a few years ago. It all started when I decided to turn a rather ugly wall in my garden into a mosaic celebrating the life of my two beautiful children. In this I found the perfect therapy and have been cutting and smashing glass and ceramics ever since. I am hugely inspired my friends, family and spiritual well-being

Currently I am developing a few series’s of work (between my day job and being a mum) one of which was inspired from some of the tremendous work from the Big Art Show 2022. The ‘I Love Glasgow’ series will be a collection of mosaics celebrating all the things that I love about Glasgow. Intended to be fun and lighthearted.

Followed by my ‘Flower Girls’ series, celebrating feminism, nature and growth. And last but not least my ‘Guardian’ series, portraits of key people in my life incorporating their personalities through the spiritual symbolism of animals.
