Guest Artist Demonstrations &
Specialist Workshops
I offer popular in-person watercolour demonstrations for art groups and societies across the Midlands and southern England. Each demonstration is engaging and informative, with a relaxed, friendly approach and clear explanations throughout. I bring a selection of original artwork to share as reference and inspiration also my very popular range of hand signed cards for your art groups members to browse and purchase if they wish.
In addition to demonstrations, I also offer workshops and painting holidays, which can be tailored to the needs and experience level of your members.
Subject Matter & Style
My work is inspired by nature and ignited by colour. I create contemporary watercolour paintings that radiate light, energy, and movement. Florals are my specialism, created in my signature loose, vibrant, and expressive style. I often describe my work as bold let beautiful.
I tend to be inspired seasonally, painting fresh spring florals, followed by large, expressive summer blooms or garden, meadow or woodland scenes. Autumn may bring organic inspiration such as fungi or hedgerow finds, while winter often focuses on birds, animals landscapes, or figures.
Travel & Location
Based in North Buckinghamshire, I regularly travel throughout East Anglia, the South East, and the Midlands, including Cambridgeshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, and the Cotswolds.
If your group is based outside these areas, please do get in touch - I am always happy to discuss travel options and possibilities.
If you would like to book a demonstration or workshop, or discuss your group’s requirements, please contact me.
