“I identify as a mixed media artist. My inspiration stems from nature, made objects and fascination with faces. I am also a self-enabled addict of Instagram.”


Inspired initially by the post of an arty friend – I began to explore the idea of button sculptures… I could not stop at one!I thank the young artist who shared her original work with Sam OwenHull {@samowenhullprojects}, (who happened to be working with Kate Freeborough {@katefreeboroughart} at Manchester Art Gallery) she has started a trend!

The second part of ‘Inspired By…’ is my passion for fashion & fascination with faces – I came across posts from Franck Gerard {@franckgerardart} and I was immediately enraptured by his portraits, which I learned were AI generated images – I was thus inspired to create my own mixed media interpretation – again I could not stop with one… So this is my interpretation, a collection of mixed media art, made by my own creativity and inspired by…

My heartfelt thanks goes out to those inspirational artists – without whom, I would not have been able to explore and expand my artistic practices.
