say hello,vibrant art!
Hi, I’m Helen
I paint expressive, richly layered still life, landscapes, and botanicals. My art is shaped by close observation of natural light, colour, space and value. My work explores the quiet beauty in everyday things — the overlooked, the luminous, those magic moments

Commissions
I’m always happy to create original work on commission. Whether you’re after a still life with personal objects, a favourite botanical, or a landscape with meaning. We can work together to bring your idea to life.
I’ve been creating commissioned art for over 30 years. Good communication is key, you don’t need to know all the answers, just bring your thoughts on the subject, colours, and size, and I’ll guide you through the rest.
If you’re interested in commissioning a piece, get in touch and let’s start a conversation.

Workshops
Make art with colour, confidence, and curiosity.
I offer vibrant, hands-on workshops that focus on acrylic painting, observation, and playful exploration. My goal is to help you loosen up, experiment with colour and texture, and connect more deeply with your subject, whether that’s still life, landscape, or botanicals.
Each session includes demonstrations, lots of individual guidance, and a warm, encouraging space to build skills and creative confidence. My workshops are open to everyone, whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced painter looking to refresh your practice.
hey! I’m Helen.
I’ve been making art more or less full-time since graduating from art school in Manchester. Over the years, my practice has followed me from the UK to Bermuda, and now to Brighton in Brisbane, Queensland.
Wherever I’ve lived, painting has been a constant. It’s how I make sense of the world around me. I work mainly in acrylic on board, creating vibrant, textured paintings of still life, botanicals, and landscapes. My process begins with observation, drawing from life to explore light, shadow, and the quiet presence of everyday objects.
People often tell me my paintings help them slow down and notice things they might have overlooked. That’s what I hope for, to offer a fresh way of seeing, and to share the wonder I find in the ordinary.

MY BLOG
From the Studio
Thoughts, process, and stories behind the paintings.
This is where I share what’s happening in the studio , reflections on my practice, glimpses into works in progress, thoughts on materials, and the occasional story behind a painting. It’s a space for looking a little deeper and connecting through the creative process.
