The first public display of my work was my picture of "A little girl in welliebobs". It was featured on a local TV programme, when I was only 8. As I grew older, my art turned into an obsessive hobby and eventually, spurred on by friends and family, I've started to sell prints of my work. My paintings are "moments" and "memories" stored in my head, painted from memory, that make me smile. I want to share them and make others smile too. less
