From working for the Welsh Arts Council after leaving school I then worked for a few years in the construction industry designing timber frame houses.
Following construction I went into management for a design company before deciding to return to education achieving an honours degree in Fine Art in Context. My final university project involved sending sculpted newspaper ‘penguins’ to various parts of the world (including New Zealand and the North Pole) and documenting their experiences on a purposely designed website called ‘Paper Penguins’.
Following university I travelled to Australia and New Zealand meeting up with my first ‘paper penguin’ Dennis, located at a penguin colony on the South Island. I also designed a window display for a tourist information and gift shop and gave talks about my project – including press and TV interviews.
On returning to the UK I set up my own web and graphic design business often straying into garden and interior design.
Recently I have been designing and painting a series of artworks suitable for display in the garden based upon stained glass.
I currently live and work in Cardiff creating mixed media artwork and garden paintings.
