‘Anna’s house’ acrylic

I live in the Norfolk countryside with my husband Tony in my family home near King’s Lynn. For many years we lived on a 40 foot steel junk rig yacht, built by Tony in his back garden. We sailed in Scandinavia, the Mediterranean and North Africa and motored through the French and German canals.

We lived in Greece for some years before returning to Norfolk and retiring from our life on the sea. In the years since I have been able to pursue a long held dream to work as an artist, to paint. I like to share how I see the world, my moments of wonder in it, colour and light, and my love of the natural world.

I paint in my log cabin studio at the top of the garden amongst the fir trees and overlooking the fields, with just the radio for company and sometimes Tony.
