Lorelei is a contemporary abstract artist living in the beautiful county of Surrey in the UK. Working in acrylic and mixed media she uses various materials and techniques to create layered and expressive compositions. Lorelei gets her inspiration from the coastal life of St Ives, Penzance and Hayle. She has been studying the works of JMW Turner which can be seen in her earlier series exhibited at Surrey Artists Open Studios in June 2024.
Lorelei studied Interior Design and Decoration at Chelsea College of Arts, UAL, in 2008. Her interests for textures, colours, and structures blossomed at KLC School of Interior Design at Chelsea Harbour in London. An alumna of the Creative Visionary Program class of 2022 taught by Nicholas Wilton. Lorelei also completed an intensive twelve-week art study with Louise Fletcher, Find Your Joy/Voice in 2023. The course focused on self-discovery in art, experimentation, theory, and practical application. Her continuing education and development highlight her commitment to both design and personal expression.
She is a member of Walton Art Club and manages social media relations. An active volunteer at Robert Philipps Gallery at the Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre. Lorelei regularly campaigns for Cancer Research UK.

Discovering how art heals my mind and body, my creative path took me to exploring various ways to develop my studies. Although I have studied design in school, I am a self-taught painter. I am glad that this is the path I chose because it took years of hard work, grafting, experimenting, journaling and late nights at my studio. I never stop learning. It is the most fulfilling process of becoming.
