I have lived for the majority of my life in Cornwall, absorbing the beauty and natural connections of life around me. I enjoy working with many mediums in my art, but have a particular fascination and fondness for the mysteries of watercolour.

Back in my studio i create detailed botanical studies of the plants I've collected. Gradually i develop the compositions and colours for my prints, often layering the minutia of nature within larger...

It is inspired by the simplicity of everyday life, and the complicated emotions that go with it. Through my artwork you will meet an anxious, but inquisitive fox and the wise old moon. Along with their friends, I hope that their warm and whimsical world can bring some encouragement and love to yours. Fox Under The Moon started as a project for me while I was out of work during the 2021 winter lockdown. I wanted to put some hope and positivity out into the world, and so I began sharing my whimsical illustrations and uplifting messages on social...
