I have always painted murals, even when I was a child. When I bought my first flat, I couldnt stop myself from painting the walls with intricate designs. I offered to paint over these when I sold my flat, thinking that they would only appeal to me, and was surprised to find out they actually added to the value! Since this revelation I started painting them for friends and family. My first official mural was done with students with special needs in a subway in Hampshire. This was such a rewarding experience, both for myself, and the students. I took the leap in 2012 to become full time mural artist, and have never regretted it. I pride myself on really listening to what my client wants me to paint, so that it really is a joint project, and their mural reflects their individuality. All my murals are drawn freehand, so each one is truly unique. Alongside this, I do face painting and glitter tattoos at childrens parties and fetes. One thing that makes me that little bit different to other face painters, is that I offer clients the chance to draw out their own design on a template, which I then reproduce on their faces. Children love this!! Adults also love to have their faces painted, for fancy dress parties, halloween parties, and hen parties. Painting baby bumps at baby showers is also becoming popular. My hand painted, locally sourced stones have always sold well at fetes and fayres, and recently I have expanded this into doing stone painting workshops for children. Again, this is a chance for them to really get stuck in, and they love creating their stone bug animals! I have worked as an art tutor with young children, and love their natural enthusiasm for colour and paint.

I am a freehand mural artist. I also do face painting and glitter tattoos for fetes and birthday parties. I do stone painting art workshops/birthday parties for children, using locally sourced stones. I also do face painting for adults at halloween parties and hen parties, and paint baby bumps at baby showers. My murals are popular in schools and preschools, as well as nurseries, childrens bedrooms. Children are involved in every step of the consultation.

A very happy 6th birthday to Chloe today - the last of the April birthdays!! Had an amazing stress free party for Chloe and 11 of her friends yesterday. Many thanks to Art & Murals by Donna Mcghie for their fantastic glitter tattoos and face painting. A brilliant idea for a birthday party even their class teacher today was impressed with the glitter tattoos.
