Originally from Manchester, I now live on the North Yorkshire coast.
I've always loved drawing and painting but it wasn't until 2018 that I started using coloured pencils.
Since then I've exhibited, won awards and had my art published.
I love using coloured pencils for the amount of detail that can be achieved.
I've also had tutorials in magazines and I now teach groups and one to one.
