Moira has a Masters degree in the History of Art and Design and is a graduate of the Royal College of Art.

Her career embraced the design world, culminating in her appointment as a Director of The Design Council, a post she held for more than seven years.

Design is all encompassing. It has a distinctive shape or pattern and my background in it’s world has greatly influenced my pictures.

But to turn it on it’s head - Art is the tribute that Design plays to industry. Hence the next step?

Watercolour

I paint nature. Simplicity is the essence of my work in water colour.

Collages

These too are about simplicity. The essence of bird, twig, seeds, and stone. Pattern and shape are again to the fore.
