A little later than planned (ok a lot!) but I just had to share what was one of the most amazing experiences of 2016 and my art career to date. And I thought what better way to do that than by foto!?! It all began in Oct 2015 when I threw caution to the wind […]

There’s lots more in store for 2016 and I’m excited to get started but for now here’s my gratitude list […]

In October 2014 I was commissioned to create a piece for a corporate client it was to be presented as a leaving gift to the Chair of Council of the client’s organisation. The brief was to create a piece that had a personal attachment  to the person it was to be presented to.  The Chair […]

The venue: The Gallery on the Corner, Battersea. The purpose: The Private View of ‘Who Taught You’. The date: Thursday 23rd July 2015. The verdict: A night where kindred souls came together as a collective to gaze on the beauty of black women and see us stripped bare. It was  a vast contrast to those garish cartoon […]
