I am a second generation Cypriot born in Manchester; I studied Fine Art at Staffordshire University and currently live in Stratford upon Avon with my husband and three children.
I paint with mostly oils but I’m not averse to mixing media.
My working processes are fluid and I enjoy mark-making, layering and the incidental.
My paintings aim to evoke the transience of time and its fleeting memories – “like a tune that wafts in the breeze. ”
Most recently I have completed a series of works entitled, ‘Time and tide wait for no man.’ This work uses the ebb and flow of the tide to mirror time’s rhythms.
As an artist I have been involved in both group and solo exhibitions; helped set up an Artists’ Cooperative and studios and taught art in schools and colleges.
