About me 
I was born in England in 1970. I trained for 2 years at the Norfolk Institute of Art and Design and then for a further 3 years at West Surrey College of Art and Design graduating with a BA Hons in three dimensional design.
I moved to the Alentejo in Portugal in 1997 with our lovely old double decker bus(now in semi-retirement) and more recently near to Messines in the Algarve where my partner and I have renovated an old country cottage and are busy bringing up our two young daughters.
As well as painting murals I also make mosaics and have recently set up a hand made greetings card business .I have also been lucky enough to be invited to give art lessons to the local primary school children on a voluntary basis which I absolutely adore, I've never met a more enthusiastic bunch of kids.

I am actually quite fluent in spoken Portuguese however my written Portuguese leaves much to be desired hence the Portuguese version of this site is still a work in progress and I apologise to anyone Portuguese who is visiting this site.
