I have always been very creative and have painted and drawn all my life.
Over the years I have taught myself textiles, collage and mixed media work.
I have a BTEC Foundation Diploma in Art & Design and have recently gained a Foundation Degree in Contemporary Crafts (glass, metal and ceramics) from Brighton University.
I continue to make ceramics, paintings and am also focusing on using recycled materials in my work.
I have sold works in galleries and been involved in many exhibitions in both East Anglia where I come from and the South where I now live.

My inspiration comes from my extensive travels, festivals, music, people, animals, poetry, stories...
Much of my work takes a narrative form, I like art to cross the boundaries of spoken language, to make the viewer connect, perhaps to laugh! or to offer a moments escapism.
Elements of my sense of spirituality are often apparent. Interconnectivity of all life is something important to me and is a returning influence in my creative thinking.
I hope you will share this common ground when you view my works.

With joy and inspiration,
Bess
