Hello.

I'm a sketchbook illustrator. I run my own art business. I'm a mum. 

And I am an anxiety sufferer.

In February 2023 I was asked if I'd like to exhibit an exhibition of illustrations about how my mental health collapses feel to me. This work was exhibited under the title Art, Anxiety and Me, and had previously just stayed firmly within the pages of my sketchbook. It wasn't for sharing. After the exhibition all of that changed and I realised that my work had prompted important conversations about mental health and art. 

During 2024 I was funded Arts Council England grant to explore more about art and mental health, and in 2025 I set up a CIC called Colour Outside the Lines to deliver workshops and education around art and nature engagement and wellbeing.
