In 1951 I moved to Cornwall to live and have lived here on and off ever since. My husband and I, plus one cat, have lived in Redruth since 1989.

I paint landscapes in both traditional and modern styles and specialise in cat portraits, working in either Watercolour or Acrylics.

I trained as an illustrator at Falmouth College of Arts and exhibitions include one woman shows in Falmouth, joint exhibitions also in Falmouth, Redruth and galleries throughout the south; including the Alexander and Clifton Galleries in Bristol. Our annual Society Of Felines Artists exhibition is held in Llewellyn Alexander Gallery, Waterloo, London, each September for three weeks. 

Prints of the modern works and cat portraits can be purchased from the Kingsley Village which is situated just off the A30 at Fraddon. [next to Macdonalds] This is an exciting and expanding venture and houses goods and food made in Cornwall. Cards of cats and the modern works are on sale and prints come celo-wrapped or framed.
