I was trained at the London College of Fashion in my teens to be a fashion pattern cutter and designer, and became a couturiere.
Early on, I did my own sketches for advertising, which progressed in later years to drawing and painting.
Fast forward many years and I took over the reins of administrator for Harrow Art Society, which I have been for more than 10 years now.
So now I'm organizing/ dressmaking/ and painting , all together at the same time!!
Plus I have 3 on line shops , where I make the clothes and do the original art for the shops.
