Four Exhibitions, One Season of Growth: A Studio Update
The past few months have felt like a quiet turning point in my practice—one of those rare seasons where the work leaves the studio and begins to find its own life out in the world.

Reflecting on 2025: A Year of Growth and Connection
Highlights From 2025 Creative Growth This year, my art found new momentum. I refined my style and built a more intentional collection.

🌿 It Will Get Easier: My Journey Through Postnatal Depression, Art, and Motherhood
In 2020, I welcomed my second daughter into the world. The pandemic had locked everything down. My toddler was full of beans, and I felt like I was drowning in hormones, isolation, and exhaustion. Postnatal depression crept in quietly, then roared. There were days when I felt like I was disappearing beneath nappies, night feeds, and the relentless pressure to be okay. I wasn’t okay. And I want to say that out loud because maybe you’re not okay either. Perhaps you’re reading t
