The childhood frustration of wanting to see, say, and do all things at once were allayed by her ability to communicate through her natural artistic talent, inherited from her Mother. This form of expression was greatly encouraged by her Grandfather who recognised at an early age her natural ability to draw and paint.
Early memories are of the outdoors and the wonderful smell of paints, pastels and charcoal.
Walking and running in the dales and embracing all seasons with equal delight Kirsty became captivated with nature and totally pledged to seeing the world. Whilst studying for her BA at Winchester, Kirsty began her extraordinary adventures with an exchange trip to Norway. After the exchange experience and her graduation from Winchester, Norway became the first foreign country where Kirsty lived and worked. Many challenges lay ahead and were conquered. In order to support herself Kirsty undertook many part time jobs including working on a fish market where she pretended she could speak Norwegian and got by with basic facial expressions and lots of smiles.
