Original Art

Upcycled Furniture

My functional hand-painted art pieces made from reclaimed furniture not only serve as unique decorative elements but also embody a commitment to sustainability. Each creation is transformed from discarded wood and materials, breathing new life into old furniture while preserving its character. The intricate designs and vibrant colours employed in the hand-painting process reflect my creativity and attention to detail, resulting in one-of-a-kind items that tell a story. Whether a coffee table adorned with artistic motifs or a set of chairs that doubles as eye-catching décor, these functional art pieces enhance living spaces with both beauty and purpose. Embracing the philosophy of upcycling, this approach not only reduces waste but also encourages a deeper appreciation for craftsmanship and individuality in home décor. With every piece being handcrafted, they become cherished treasures that contribute to a more environmentally conscious lifestyle.

My portfolio showcases a journey through my artistic evolution, capturing the essence of my paintings. Each piece reflects a different phase in my life, a unique blend of emotions, techniques, and inspirations that have shaped my creative vision. This collection represents both growth and experimentation. The vibrant brushstrokes and meticulous details invite the viewer to engage with the stories behind each canvas, revealing the influences that have guided my hand. As you navigate through this portfolio, you'll witness not only my artistic progress but also a profound connection to the moments that inspired each creation, making this an intimate reflection of my journey as an artist.

My Mission

As an artist from the Isle of Sheppey, I passionately create original paintings and distinctive upcycled furniture that harmonize functionality with artistic flair. My paintings invite viewers into a narrative, capturing fleeting moments in unique locations through vibrant colours and intricate details. Inspired by my surroundings, I often use my own photography as a reference, allowing nature's beauty to inform my work. My journey into upcycling began with decorating my own home, starting with a mural on my stairs. This endeavour sparked a love for transforming pre-loved items into stylish pieces that embody a bohemian aesthetic. Captivated by mandalas and the dynamic interplay of colours, I gradually infused my furniture with artistic designs, each piece telling its own story while enhancing the overall charm of the space. Through these creations, I aim to share my love of art and sustainability with others.
