In the 1980s I left my home in Lancashire to study Fashion & Textiles at Liverpool's John Moores University. After obtaining my degree, I worked briefly as a designer for Courtaulds overseas and then returned to Liverpool to train as a teacher of art. My last teaching post was at the Oldershaw Academy in Wallasey on the Wirral peninsula.

I now spend my time travelling and painting. 

My work is currently sold at MerseyMade art cafe and the Liverpool Beatles Museum in Liverpool city centre, Concept Corner in New Brighton and Woodside Ferry terminal in Birkenhead. There is also an exhibition of my work in the foyer of the splendid Radisson RED hotel in Liverpool, where you can also purchase my merchandise.
