​

I am an independent Shoreham by Sea based Inclusive Arts Practice artist and facilitator who loves painting using acrylic inks and gold/silver leaf. I am interested in art which places an emphasis on collaboration, participation, communication, exchange, connection and how this leads to improved mental health and wellbeing. 

​

My artwork explores the sea, light, space, time, perspective and the process of making art.  I have a particular interest in the links between the arts and health, having worked for over thirteen years in the NHS in roles within Governance, Engagement, Equality, Delivery and Administration. I decided to train to facilitate inclusive arts projects with diverse and marginalised groups, especially those experiencing social exclusion due to economic or health reasons.
