I have always had a love of drawing and painting. I attended a children's art class at Hartlepool College of Art, and later became a full time student. Through marriage I discovered and began painting the wonderful world of the countryside which in the past I had taken for granted. I taught art for four years still painting in the holidays and weekends. With the end of marriage and teaching I was able to spend all of my time studying the landscape in its moods and weathers. In 1997 I joined a creative writing class, something happened inside me. The sound of words began to compete with what I had always enjoyed doing - painting. In 2003 I took a big leap and put away my brushes.


Showcase (02 Mar 06)  
Mountain Stream
A distant murmur
Dep melodic humming, gurgling chimes
Within this orchestra of sound
Graceful formation, rolling waves
Leaping bubbles, flapping white skirts
An array of colours, stones washed clean
Mossy rocks exposed in richest greens.
