About Me

I'm Tamsin. I'm a self taught mixed media artist from Nottingham.I mainly paint in acrylics and I love creating collages and altered art. I use a lot of vintage and recycled items. I like giving new life to old or used things.I am influenced by different styles of art and artists, which has made my own techniques quite diverse and helps me to produce varied pieces of artwork.I am inspired by anything vintage and retro.I love the 1920's! I love silent movies, my favourite is 'Pandoras Box', I love Louise Brooks.I love getting piercings and tattooed!
