I live in Southampton, which is a lovely historic city on the South coast of England. My art is mostly monochrome but has hidden depths and it will take you a long time to see it all!

I work mostly in pen, but have been known to use acrylics, car paint, watercolour, pencil etc on everything from jackets to skin! I trained as an archaeological illustrator and was an archaeologist for many years I now work as a researcher.

I have never before considered selling my work or even showing it to anyone outside close friends and family. Redbubble has encouraged me because I do not have to sell the originals, but I can show my art to a wider audience. Up, I’m not even sure why I decided to give the rest of the world a look but I realised I’m proud of it!
