Hi, I am a retired mental health nurse who decided to 'have a go' at soft pastel painting two years ago by way of a hobby. My first set of pastels came from the Range, I quite literally did not know any better! It has since become one of my greatest passions, suffice it to say my pastels no longer come from the Range. I have carried out commissions and love attending art and craft fairs.
I live with my husband who still works as a paramedic for the NHS and our 2 dogs, Gary and Aida. I have three grown up children and one very lively granddaughter who is also one of my passions.
I love reading and exercise, at the age of 45 I trained as a fitness instructor, I was the oldest in my cohort, and went on to teach Zumba amongst other things. I love challenging myself and learning new skills.
