My story

My journey as an artist started with something so simple – a Christmas present.

From that moment, I never really looked back. I spent countless hours learning, practising and pushing myself to improve. What started as a hobby slowly became my passion, my work, and eventually a dream I couldn’t ignore.

For 10 years I worked in the horse racing world, surrounded by horses and doing something I genuinely loved. But alongside that, my drawing was growing into something much bigger.

Leaving the racing world to pursue my art has been one of the biggest and scariest decisions I’ve ever made. It means stepping away from something familiar and taking a chance on myself and on something I’ve spent the last two years working so hard to build.

But sometimes you have to be brave enough to take the leap.

Every portrait I create means something to me. Whether it is a much-loved pet, a special horse, a memorial piece or a piece of wildlife artwork, I want my drawings to become something you can treasure for years to come.
