I’m 55 and came to painting late on. I worked as a biscuit packer for nearly 30 years and really enjoyed it but I was a victim of redundancy. What a scary time that was, I could only operate machines and there are very few factories around here. One rainy day I was sat here pondering on life and felt the urge to paint one of my ex-battery chickens (I have never painted an animal before only dabbling in the occasional human face). I dared to show the result to my friends and someone asked if I could paint their dog, eeek! That was about 6 years ago and I’ve been so lucky to paint many dogs, chickens, cats, hares etc and get paid for something I love doing.

What else can I tell you?

I love walking my dog, he has separation anxiety so we are basically joined at the ankle (he’s a JRT).

That’s a little of my story, thank you for reading.

Why I am vegan

I became vegan 8 years ago, I have Crohn’s and was researching dairy and I have not touched dairy or meat since. Best decision I have taken, for me and the animals. I think my love for animals helps me with painting them, I love seeing the various pets people send me. I do shed a tear for those furbabies no longer with us but then so happy when my painting brings the parent some comfort.

I try to help animal rescues where and when I can. I regularly do giveaways on my FaceBook page, I try to spread a little happiness and paw it forward.

Why I support Viva’s Art for Animals project

Hopefully supporting Viva will contribute to them helping more animals. Perfect.
