I work as an International Community Artist raising funds for the organisations and projects I work with by painting portraits of the faces I encounter .
I am 35 year old single mother of two boys, and have been a freelance artist since leaving school. I work as a muralist , as a portrait painter and set designer and builder. I am the founder of Art For Action and envisage this organisation being able to carry out its work in ever varying places around the world and here in the UK. My paintings go hand in hand with my projects, as without the experiences and people I meet I would not have the material and inspiration for this part of my work.
