How do I put into words how this artwork makes me feel, when words are limited… It’s that first sip of my warm cuppa. It’s the deep breath after “It’s over”. It’s that uplifting dream that stays all day (see the dream catcher?). It’s the moments spent painting knowing the child is safe, the dog’s had his walk, the next…
It is undeniable that I have changed as an individual, I have mellowed down and it seems that my art reflect that change with curves and circular moves. I still love lines and square shapes, but it feels good to allow and be flexible and flowing. This artwork feels like a dance.
Colours that feel like the world to me, hence the title. The inspiration came during a family holiday in Corfu. Since becoming parents, life became quite routine – work, day care, family, we didn’t go to many holidays abroad. Corfu was not our first but it was special, recharging, inspirational.
This painting is not about daisies, it’s about self-forgiveness. The artwork came about in the early stages of “motherhood” when I was struggling with my identity. That self-critical and often unforgiving inner voice can be so loud, that many of us can’t hear much else. We all need reminders that we are all doing our best at any given time;…

This is a gorgeous large abstract painting of a woman with a calm peaceful expression. Her serene demeanour is juxtaposed with the sharp dark lines and random colours, to highlight one message - all that matters is now.
I adore the look and feel of trees. They don’t need anything that we provide yet give us life. If left in peace they will grow as tall and strong as they can, no ifs and buts. They say with maturity comes appreciation of solitude and one’s own company; I guess that makes me very mature 😊
A poppy from my abstracted floral series – I’ve gone floral mad 😊 Why abstracted flowers – I have always said that nature is perfect and I have no interest in painting anything as it is in nature. What feels right is capturing the essence and showing it through my own emotional lens.
A large abstract painting, with gorgeous colours and marks. It is my representation of moving forward - it doesn't usually happen in a straight line, in fact, most of the times it is more like a zig-zag. And if we look around, there are always stepping stones to support our forward journey.
My appreciation for magnolia started after an art exhibition at the Hidcote manor gardens where they have exquisite magnolia trees. Since then, I notice them throughout Cheltenham. This artwork is the beginning on my abstracted floral series. The magnolia flower is not dominating, but it demands attention. It feels so good to let my eyes wander.
As I made the up-down marks with the brush, I wondered “What is life, if not a series of ups and downs. No matter who we are, one way or another, life will teach us to prepare for the downs and enjoy the ups. Whether we learn, and how long it takes us to learn, is up to us and…
Time travel - fiction or reality, what do you think? At times it felt like this canvas will never get finished – travelling to the future would have made things much easier for me 😊 but as I always say the joy in creating something is not just the end result but the process. For now, I shall be time…
