Tell us a little about you and your brand
I’ve been a colour consultant, artist and decorative painter for over 20yrs. Colour has always been my inspiration and is the starting point for my work. In recent years I was mentored by colour psychologist Angela Wright and that has brought a different dimension to both my colour consultancy and my other creative work. Understanding my clients on this deeper level has allowed me to create spaces that have a deeper connection to both the client and the place.
Who or what inspires you?
Colour ! It’s everywhere and I’m always looking out for different colour combinations - my garden is a huge source of inspiration as are interior magazines and books.
I trained as a textile designer so am drawn to pattern and fabrics and love traditional textiles that I often find on holidays abroad.
I’m a bit of an art collector too so find inspiration in other peoples art and stories.
Which other brands do you love?
Birdie Fortescue - I Iove her colour palette and again I am drawn to the artisan and craft element of her interior accessories. My own work fits perfectly with her aesthetic and I currently have a series of paintings at her pop up in London.
Pippa Small jewellery - the prices are beyond my pocket but the jewellery is exquisite. Again I’m drawn to the colours of the gemstones and the handmade, detailed quality of her work.
