I’m a London-based artist who works as a painter, illustrator, assembler, sometime photographer, writer and collector of the everyday. I enjoy working collaboratively with, as well as for, communities to help tell their stories and as a facilitator to support others in their own creative practice.

My process combines drawing, printmaking and collage working with anything from house paint to ink and spray paints – using found tools from forks to toothbrushes. I often stand to paint on the floor or walls using movement as part of the process much like a dancer, travelling back and forth across the paper.

Previous illustration clients include the V&A Museum, Waterstones, food poverty charity The Felix Project and Orion Books. My book cover for André Alexis’ Fifteen Dogs, published by Profile Books, was nominated for the V&A Illustration Awards.

I am currently working on The Pond, a written and visual project exploring Kenwood Ladies Pond and the stories of the women who swim there.

I facilitate creative projects with a variety of education and healthcare settings, ranging from pre-schoolers to adults in end-of-life care, children with SEND and mental health difficulties to city workers in need of an antidote. I’ve taught adults and teenagers at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts, mentor ex-prisoners with Koestler Arts and create educational content for the Access Art curriculum.

I’m keen to continue to explore our in-between spaces and the unexpected beauty in ordinary things. I want to make work that helps me make sense of the world and to enable others to do the same.
