Well, it’s been another busy and exciting year. From becoming a fully fledged member of the Manchester Academy of Fine Arts, exhibiting at the Royal Academy of Arts, London and being on the cover/featured in the Contemporary Collage Magazine, I am grateful for every opportunity to share my work in 2023.
I would like to thank everyone for their continued support here and at Elephantstones Gallery, it really means the world!

I am now clocking off for Christmas and the Eve Illustration Print Shop is closed until the new year. Have a magical holiday and wishing you a happy 2024.
Please note: You can still order from the Eve Illustration Print Shop, but orders will not ship until I return to work on the 8th January 2024.
When autumn arrives, I always make a new series of landscapes for Elephantstones Gallery. This series is inspired by the beauty of Hayfields trees in winter using found photography from the area. They would make a lovely Christmas gift or treat for yourself!
