“For me painting is a celebration of life and how light and color interact. The real joy is in the challenge and complexity and getting it right. I constantly strive to hold myself to the highest standards. “

When she am not in the studio painting she am dreaming about painting or outside somewhere with my camera scouting out wonderful things to inspire her.

Helen works traditionally in watercolor and acrylics and loves working in realism. Intimate detail with saturated living colour. She will often imagine that she am sculpting with paint and always approach her art with enthusiasm and energy. Helen’s preferred subjects are all things nature, in particular flowers, animals and birds and sea & landscapes.

Over the years, she have developed a distinctive style, full of life and often with a sense of whimsy.
