I studied illustration at art college, so there is a story-telling feel to most of my work. During
the summer I re-discovered my love of illuminated manuscripts and was inspired to incorporate
some richly detailed page borders in some of my compositions. I love the way borders can
draw the viewer into an image and help tell the story.
More recently my attention has turned to the festive season and I have had fun playing with
different aspects of a British Christmas, drawing on folklore, historical costumes and traditions.
I love Christmas, so always find it a springboard to creativity!
I hope you enjoy my work, as much as I enjoyed creating it.
