I am an artist and illustrator by trade and history. I have been drawing and painting all my life really. I have had experience and training in graphic design but, unfortunately, have had to take other work. I have grown up children and while they were growing up I found time to paint but did not get much training in computer graphics. I have worked in a local school for the last ten years as an Learning Support Assistant but have still carried on painting. In the last couple of years I have done training courses in Dreamweaver, Frontpage and Flash but have not had the work experience of using them. I am really looking to expand my skills and use my talents and abilities further. I can paint in most mediums and in a multitude of genres.
