As an artistic person she prides herself in keeping her traditional art skills alive and regularly paints, crafts and sculpts in her free time- constantly adding to the ever growing pile of sketch books! She values it's importance because how else are you going to know about weighting characters, lighting and proportions and other classic elements without this extra attention? Some of her artwork is available to view in the traditional artwork section of this site.

You can also commission her to create something unique for yourself or as a gift: How about a watercolour painting of your martial home as an anniversary gift? She can work in many different mediums- watercolour, acrylic, pastle, charcoal, clay etc- and can apply these onto many different surfaces or items (restrictions apply with certain materials).
She charges a very competitive rate for this service- only £100 per day worked on your item (based on an 8 hour day). So, if she takes 5 days to create your painting, you'll pay £500. This is for paintings only, framing would be extra.
