About Me
I am a painter in oils and have always loved painting landscapes and seascapes. More recently, I have also painted contemporary still life, particularly looking at colour and colour relationships.
I took up art as a career following art school, which I attended as a mature student, completing my studies in 2008. Since then, I have shown my work regularly in art shows and galleries, including Manchester Art Fair, Dukes 92 Manchester, Philips Contemporary Art Manchester, The White Gallery, Bollington, and Art off the Edge, Alderley Edge. I have also been a regular exhibitor at the biennial East Cheshire Art Fair, Macclesfield.
In 2022, together with six other professional artists, I was a founder member of the Northern Girls Art Collective, based in Cheshire, which annually shows works at The Clonterbrook Gallery. My work has also been showcased online by Will’s Art Warehouse.
I work primarily in oils. I use simple forms, vibrant colour and altered perspectives. My work often forms a composite, semi-abstract work that references a viewpoint, an emotional response, or a memory.
The Northern Girls Exhibition 2026 will be held at Clonterbrook Gallery from Friday 2nd October-Sunday 4th October, 10am-4pm daily, and then, by popular demand, will also show for a second weekend: Friday 9th October-Sunday 11th October, 10am-4pm daily.
Clonterbrook Gallery is on Trap Road, Swettenham Heath, Cheshire.CW12 2LS. Please note that the gallery is on the first floor, accessible via a staircase.
The Northern Girls were featured in the June 2026 edition of Cheshire Life and will be showcased on their social media during September.
Regular updates on events will appear on Instagram @zeldaartistcheshire and @northerngirls_art. For more information on Northern Girls Art, please see here.
