About Me

Hi, I’m Esther — an artist and experienced art teacher based in the West Midlands, with over 20 years of teaching in secondary schools and a lifelong love of creativity.

Art has always been a constant in my life. After completing a foundation course in art, I went on to earn a BA (Hons) in Ceramics. While I’ve explored many different mediums over the years, drawing has always held a special place in my heart.

That connection grew even stronger when I welcomed my dog, Mabel, into my life. Her expressive face and playful personality sparked a new creative journey — capturing the unique charm and spirit of animals through highly detailed, realistic portraits.
