About Me

I am a mixed media artist and full-time primary teacher from Birmingham, England. Art has always been a form of therapy for me and a way to find a way back to myself whenever I feel like I've lost my way. It's often hard for me to voice how I feel so I try to implement my thoughts, feelings and opinions into my artwork. 

In March 2020 I went through a rough patch in my life mentally/spiritually, and with a worldwide lockdown going on I used art as a tool to get through it all. I started an art page on Instagram (@tarzandraws) and began drawing, sketching and painting in whatever free time I had. I've continued this since then and now sell my original artwork and art prints on my Etsy store (TarzanDraws). 

My work revolves around social injustice, mental wellbeing, body image, love, spirituality and self-love. I aim to reflect real, lived experiences of myself and those around me which may not be reflected in the mainstream media.
