About
I am an artist and teacher based in Sussex. My artwork is inspired by age-old traditions, from medieval manuscripts and vintage illustrations to ancient geometry found in stained glass windows, devotional architecture, and the Japanese art of origami. Alongside painting and making I run workshops in traditional artistic techniques, including gold leafing, egg tempera painting, traditional geometric patterns, and origami.
I studied languages at Cambridge University before completing a Masters degree in Medieval Art History at The Courtauld Institute of Art in 2011, graduating with Distinction. I went on to teach Art History at Westminster School, and gained a diploma in the art of manuscript illumination through masterclasses at The Prince’s School of Traditional Arts.
I find our artistic traditions rich and inspiring but not always penetrable. Through my artwork and teaching, I hope to make the world of traditional art accessible and fun.
