I’ve always loved art and been a keen painter all my life. I’ve never been to art school, but I think my love for it stems from the peace it brings me (and my busy mind!). I’ve always picked up my brushes whenever I’ve felt lost or blank - hence the name I gave my studio. Staring at a blank page and feeling both how imposing it is and how exciting it is in equal measures was a bit like how I felt when I took the plunge into freelance life.
I started Blank Alice in 2023 shortly after quitting my full time job, just before turning the big 30. I wanted to be out of the corporate game and live a more creative life that felt more genuine to me, and its the best decision I’ve ever made. I’m truly enjoying where this once small side project is taking me, and the wonderful people I’m lucky enough to work with.
When I’m not in the studio, I also work as a freelance brand manager and florist. Weddings are a lifestyle at this point and I love them! Being outside playing with flowers, walking the coast and coming home to paint in my studio with my dog Peach is where I find my joy.
