I'm a songwriter and musician, with a background in creative design and fine art.
Recently, I've set myself up as a content creator and influencer in these fields.
I'm keen to connect with other musicians and artists, or small businesses who desire to improve their social media and online presence.
About Me.
For a number of years, I have practiced my creative skillset in painting landscape art
and broadened my knowledge of both digital and traditional ways of working.
I studied a BA Honours in Illustration at the University of Lincoln from 2017 to 2020. I have also sold my original artwork at various art fairs in the East Midlands region and parts of Wales at local collective galleries. Alongside this, I've sold online through art selling platforms.
