Flowers




I love painting, especially painting flowers, it is another passion I hold alongside photography, drawing and 3d making. Here I show a few of my favourite paintings I have created. All my paintings depict flowers I capture with my camera, they range from small scale to large scale paintings. I always paint in my spare time and more so during summer holidays, i find it relaxing and calming and a way i can express myself and my interests.

My paintings are influence by Georgia O'keeffe, I adore her work and I am very much inspired by the way she paints and depicts the beauty of flowers that people dont usually see. These are a few paintings of Georgia's that I love, her use of bright, vivid, to soft colours, the detail and every time capturing the beauty that the flowers hold.

Fused Glass


These pieces I had created for a project of mine and are one of the reasons why I am pursuing Glass at Uni. I am in love with the fused glass dishes I created and was my first time ever making pieces out of glass. The possibilities with glass is endless and i want to push glass to its limits hopefully creating beautiful pieces.
So watch this space!

Burst of Colour




Just started my blog today, showing one of many of my creations to come.
A bright start to the day and I wanted to experiement with creating photographs of blured flowers in the garden and loved the outcomes. The use of photographing the flowers out of focus has merged the colours together creating great bright abstract photos which i love!
