The Intruder

The Intruder is a celebration of life's unexpected moments. Every object in this painting had found its way to my studio over time—flowers freshly picked from the garden, a morning coffee, fruit waiting to be enjoyed, and a collection of well-loved treasures. Then, almost unnoticed, a little turquoise cat wearing sunglasses quietly wandered into the arrangement and stole the show.

I love the stories that ordinary objects can tell, especially when something surprising invites us to smile.

Using my favourite bold colours, expressive brushwork and a playful composition, my aim is to create paintings that bring happiness, warmth and a sense of joy into everyday living. The Intruder is a reminder that sometimes the most unexpected guests become the heart of the story.
