A painting offers a chance to tell a story, evoking the same thrill as your beloved spooky tale.
art inspired by the macabre
Drawing from the unusual and the macabre the art captures the uncanny and melancholic. Inviting you to appreciate the beauty in all things dark and eerie. Challenging perceptions, redefining contemporary dark art for modern interiors, moving beyond gothic art clichés. art for the strange, art is for everyone.
Although my chosen degree was textile art, the practice of painting and drawing was prevalent throughout my studies. This love of painting continued throughout my working life, becoming a place of solace and rest.
My textile background comes through in the textures and tactile feel of my paintings. Creating layers of interest is an important part of my process.
