Since studying A-Level Art, I have had a deep love of prints and printmaking, but as I built a career in marketing and raised a family, I struggled to find the time to fully explore this passion beyond it just being a hobby.

In my twenties, I also discovered a love for scuba diving. The underwater world holds endless wonders, and I’ve always enjoyed capturing them through photography. Eventually, I made the space in my life to combine these two creative passions. My underwater photos now serve as the inspiration for my prints.

I love sharing the beauty of marine life, especially species that people may not have encountered before. Part of the joy for me is choosing the right printmaking technique to express the essence of each image. I am always experimenting and learning new methods to help bring these subjects to life.

Techniques I use include etching, screen printing, Mokuhanga, linocut and cyanotype. I have trained in printmaking at Central Saint Martins, The Art Print Residence, South Hill Park Arts Centre, and Reading College.

I hope you enjoy exploring the prints I have created.
