Teresa is a painter and works primarily with oils but also works with watercolours and charcoals. Her paintings and drawings are inspired by many subjects including the freedom and escapism of the sea, the beauty of the human form, light on the landscape and portraiture. She trained as a graphic designer and gained a BA (Hons) in Interdisciplinary Design from Berkshire College of Art and Design in 1997. Teresa has been painting for many years alongside her career as a graphic designer but now works solely as a professional artist working from her studio on Brighton seafront.
