What creativity means to me

For me, art is a way to listen to my inner world, make sense of my emotions, connect with nature and people, and process life.

Creating slows me down and helps me to notice the little things - such as the way light filters through trees, how colour casts across the sky at sunset, or the sheer beauty of a flower.

Through my photography, mixed media, and educational workshops, I hope to offer others that same sense of pause and presence in our fast-paced world

It started in a quaint coastal village…

I grew up in a quaint coastal village in the UK, where golden sunsets over the sand dunes were a daily gift. My childhood was spent exploring the beach, cycling through the pinewoods, and making flower sand pies. At home, I was always busy with crafts, and my love for creating and the outdoors was nurtured by my mum and Granny Peg, who tended their gardens with care, noticing all the little details

From a young age, energy and art were my language.

I was always drawing, creating, and eager to learn more. Dad fostered my love of photography, and my creative passion deepened through high school, leading me to study at art college before earning a degree in fashion and textile design. It was during this time I realised how deeply nature influenced my creativity, a connection I still hold close.

Teaching opened my eyes to mindfulness.

I returned to university to study education, becoming a teacher and later deepening my studies in art therapy. This time in the classroom gave me first-hand experience of the importance of mindfulness and wellbeing - not just as ideas, but as practices we can live each day. It opened my eyes to the powerful connection between creativity and healing. Art therapy deepened this understanding, showing me how art can be a tool for communication, connection, and expression.

The 2020 pandemic and motherhood truly guided me back to my creative path.

When my little boy was born, it was as if a light switch had been turned on-an undeniable need to create, like a portal opening in my heart and mind. Watching him explore the world with wonder reignited something within me; it brought me home. Art, once again, became a necessity: an expression of love, presence, and the beauty of everyday moments.

Adventures and nature have always been my place of comfort and inspiration-a source of clarity and peace that continues to, and will always, inform and inspire my work.

Whenever I begin a new project or body of work, I start by wandering, observing, and simply noticing. Photography became a natural way to capture inspiration-documenting textures, colours, and patterns, and revealing what is often invisible. These subtle details later find their way into my artwork.

For me, creating is so much more than painting or drawing; it’s an invitation to slow down, to notice, and to reconnect with ourselves and the world around us. My work is inspired by nature, mindfulness, and holistic living, designed to bring a sense of peace, presence, and gentle restoration into the spaces we call home.

Through my workshops and teaching, I guide others to explore their own creativity as a path to self-discovery, mindfulness, and connection. It’s not about becoming the next Monet, or even being ‘good’ at art. My intention is to offer gentle guidance and practical tools that support people as they pause, reflect, and reconnect with themselves and to nature. I believe art is a powerful tool for well-being, like a bridge between our inner and outer worlds.

 My path of purpose

My work is guided by a deep belief that reconnecting with nature and creativity helps restore balance and wellbeing in our lives. I want to live in a world where we look out for one another, support our local communities, and protect this beautiful earth for the generations coming behind us. Through my art and workshops, my purpose is to gently guide others to notice and be nourished by the quiet beauty of the natural world, rediscovering their own intuition along the way.

Through a holistic, heart-led approach to art and life, I invite people to slow down and return to a simpler, more mindful way of living. I believe art should be kind, loving, and giving. It’s not just about making something beautiful; it’s about creating a safe space where you feel seen, special, and deeply connected.

At the heart of my work is the art of noticing: the subtle, the beautiful, and the often-overlooked moments that bring us back to presence. Inspired by the rhythms of nature and the wisdom found in stillness, I weave together creativity and mindfulness as pathways to curiosity and deeper self-understanding.

“Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” — Carl Jung

This is the essence of my purpose: gently guiding others back to their own inner awareness, where a more balanced, joyful, and connected way of living can begin - and quietly ripple outward into the world.

Why emigrate to Australia?

All the little things

I love negatives and vintage photographs

Might just have an obsession for vintage chairs

Back in the day, I was an international swimmer

Making tea in a vintage teapot is a really treat

I have Anglo-Indian, Celtic and European heritage

Growing plants from seed and scraps is hobby and amazes me.

Soulful Scribbles

From the one who knows me best.
