My Story

I am a contemporary painter living in the artistic town of Folkestone on the South Coast of England. I share a wonderful light and airy studio, which I designed with my husband, David, who is a potter. Together, we collaborate on Froude & Froude ceramics and invite other professionals in the creative community to work with us, ensuring a dynamic ethos.

My gestural, expressive style and signature colour range, reflecting the Mediterranean light, developed while we lived in Catania, Sicily. I seek colour and movement as inspiration, telling stories of my journey through life and embracing opportunities to tell new stories using my unique painterly marks.

My recent commission for 14 large artworks in 3 months has taken me through an exciting creative process, responding to the story of a multinational wholesale bank based in London, the Middle East, and Africa.
