Although I have worked for over twenty years, as an Intuitive Psychic Artist, and soul rescue healer; my passion for art has compelled me to draw and paint since I watched my Father bring to life images like magic on pieces of paper.
At the age of four I was drawing ballet dancer's and portraits, I was constantly amazed by people which, continued throughout my life in various forms of work. As a Medical Representative I was fascinated to know about medicine and how it effected people's health. As a screen printer I was intrigued by the techniques that were employed, and the commercial aspect of work within that sector.
I also worked as a sports physio, and progressed to study Hypnotherapy, I became interested in the use of the subconscious mind and how we neglect to access our real potential. As a therapist, I was able to connect with people; in my early thirties I was about to discover a very special gift when I was invited to a friend's house for a reading by a spiritualist. She told me that I was going to work for the spirit world. That night my friend put me to the test, and presented me with a pile of paper and pencils. To my amazement I began to draw and proceeded to give reading to all who were there. Initially, I felt uncomfortable about the uncontrollable, rapid drawing process. I also felt that all of my Father's artistic instruction was no avail. After the first year of drawing in quite an erratic manner, I began to overcome the antagonistic methods between the two different forms of drawing. Years later, I moved to Norfolk with my youngest daughter and son, where I worked as a self employed artist. I held various exhibitions and welcomed the opportunity to meet many talented artists. I later moved to West Yorkshire where I attended Leeds College of Art and achieved my BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art, after which, I achieved a Post Graduate Diploma in Fine Art at York.
As I reflect upon the last twenty five years, I still look back in wonderment at the day that I discovered this magical gift. I am both thankful and privileged that I have been blessed, and believe that I was destined to become an intuitive, visionary and spiritual artist.
