My work explores the emotional connections between memory, heritage and place. Through expressive oil and mixed media paintings, I create spaces where personal experiences are transformed into something universal, inviting others to find echoes of their own stories within the work.

Growing up between Scottish and Italian cultures, and shaped by both loss and belonging, I have always been drawn to the ways places, landscapes and nature hold memory. Whether inspired by the flowers that mark life's celebrations and reflections, the streets and landscapes of Tuscany, or the intuitive language of abstraction, each collection begins with an emotional response rather than a desire to simply represent what I see.

My process combines observation with intuition. Some works begin with photographs or reference imagery that provide a starting point, while others emerge entirely through instinctive mark-making. As each painting develops, colour, texture and gesture become the language through which the work finds its own direction.

Rather than creating literal records of places or moments, I seek to capture how they are remembered and felt. My hope is that each painting offers more than something to look at; it offers a quiet invitation to pause, reflect and form a personal connection, allowing every collector to discover their own meaning within the work.
