About me

I’m an artist based in south wales, i studied art in Cardiff Met. I had an unfortunate decline in my health, causing me to have seizures. Art has been theraputic and given me freedom to work for myself from home. I have had the privilege to be able to do what i love - and the incredible support i have recieved doing this has been a dream come true. I have worked on commissions since i was in highschool, lucky enough to have someone see my work and suggest i start; beginning with a portrait of her grandchild. From here i started to advertsise, to family and friends to begin with, but as i grew in confidence and abilitiy, i posted on social media. This opened a whole new range of clients, as friends of friends and even strangers started asking me for commissions.

My pet portriture started with a drawing i did of my family horse, it was a gift for my mum for mothers day. I decided to do the same for my partners family when we lost their beloved dog Sheba, it was then i realised i wanted to be able to do similar for other people. I have done a few memorial pieces since then, along with portraits of peoples current pets! I love creating both, but there is a different pride and fullfilment in creating beautiful memorials for people who are grieving the loss of their pets.
