With spring almost sprung, artist Maya’s colourful representa­tions of dragonflie­s, flowers, butterflie­s, moths and trees are perfectly in tune with the season.

Tomorrow, she will be celebratin­g her son’s 11th birthday and has extended a welcome to enjoy a special afternoon tea.

Maya hails from a Sri Lankan/Anglo background and this is highlighte­d in her work.

Starting working life as a nurse, then working at Cambridge Arts Theatre, she found her art niche in 2010 after attending art classes at Lancaster College.

In 2015 she became a member of Green Door artists’ community and Carnoustie Arts Society.

She’s resident at The Bothy Studio in the town.
