Maureen has a BA in textile design from The Central School of Art, London. After working as a fabric designer and raising a family she was able to concentrate on painting. Now a member of the SWA she has had work selected by them and also the Pastel Society at The Mall Galleries. The Wykeham Gallery, Aubrey Fletcher Fine Art and The Saltmarsh Gallery in Lymington, now regularly exhibit her work.

My textile background has a strong influence on my work, colour texture and pattern being important elements. I am particularly inspired by the effects of light on the landscape and enjoy experimenting with different media.
