Hi, I'm Camile!

I'm an artist from North Yorkshire, currently painting and drawing in my little home studio in the countryside.

I have been creating portraits now for almost 10 years, but I have been drawing my whole life.

I work in pencil, oil paint and am now dabbling with digital art.

Here I will share my love for all things creative.

Come on in to the studio with me and watch me paint for a while, I'll put the kettle on.

Tea or coffee?
