Dungeons & Dragons character design Treant
Starting with a black ink line drawing, I develop the character gradually adding colour and minor characteristics.

Indistinguishable from a normal tree, Treants can be so majestic and graceful. Personally, as a huge Lord of the Rings fan, I decided I wanted to work on a female 'Ent Wife' character.

Pet portraits make great gifts
For pet portraits, I predominantly use oil paints or Caran D’ache pastel pencils on pastelmat paper. The resulting texture is very smooth and velvety, which I think is perfect for drawing animals. Once completed, each drawing is sealed with a finish to protect the artwork over time to give a long lasting characterful drawing of our favourite four-legged friends.

Portraits of you and your loved ones
I enjoy painting and drawing a wide variety of subjects in a realistic style. I am intrigued by the detail in nature and how light works. I love to break the constraints of the two dimensional surface to create artworks that are as lifelike as possible. My goal for each portrait is to portray a convincing and realistic likeness with depth of personality and character.

Bespoke illustrations for books, websites & more
Illustration is one of my favourite types of artform. Through lucid colours or whimsical line drawings, I strive for my illustrations to provide visual escapism. I mainly use watercolours, inks and pencils and for digital illustrations I mainly use Adobe Photoshop. As a child, I was fascinated with the drawings of E.H Shepherd, Arthur Rackham, Quentin Blake and Raymond Briggs who have all become my biggest inspirations in bringing fantastical stories to life. I have always believed that there is real magic that happens in bringing stories to life through illustration and it will continue to inspire us all - no matter our age!
Hire me for your event
Weddings, funerals & special events
I have been playing at weddings and events for nearly 10 years and it never ceases to amaze me how humbling it can be to be a part of such a special and meaningful day. Whatever the event, if you are stuck in choosing music, I am always happy to help with any suggestions. My motto is, ‘if it has a tune, my harp and I will play it for you. I can also recommend examples of popular music choices that I have played for similar events over the years, but I am more than happy to learn any song you like - literally, anything goes! If you would like to mix things up, I can also play guitar for you (or piano, if there is one at the venue).
Prices (from £400)
1 hour playing (£400 + porterage & petrol)
2 hours playing (£550 + porterage & petrol)
3 hours playing (£700 + porterage & petrol)

Add depth and space to your music
For the past 10 years, I have had the honour of performing on a range of albums and with studios such as Universal Studios, Cafe Music Studios and Bridge Row Studios. I love both live performance and working in a recording studio. I specialise in creating harp music for an eclectic mix of music styles. The harp is an incredibly versatile instrument, and there are a whole range of harp techniques that can be used to add depth and texture to a piece of music; harmonics, bowing, string bends (using the pedals), glissandos, arpeggios, nail strums and many more. I am available for harp performance and recording. For recording I either work from my home studio or I can travel to you or your studio of choice. Artists I have recorded and performed with include: Sam Smith, Surie, Mamas Gun, Suburban Dirts, Royal Holloway Philharmonic, Matt Coldric, Jack In Water, Austin Basham, and Dave Gerard Band.
