I am an artist and author married to Dave Sheldrake - photographer - and we are always doing something new! If you would like to receive our free monthly newsletter which contains updates, news and special offers only available to subscribers, then please complete the form above.

You will be able to view my latest work and be invited to special events ahead of the general public.

Each month, we also feature reviews, recipes, rescue dogs, books, and other artists and photographers that Dave and I admire and enjoy, along with information about life here in the Algarve.

I will never pass on your details to a third party or pester you with lots of e-mails. Just one e-mail on the 1st of each month.

"Snapshot! The newsletter that thinks it's a magazine!"

Previously I published a full magazine each month for subscribers, but I am taking a break from this mammoth task to work on some exciting new projects. More about those soon...

"You’ve done it again you two! It’s another fabulous, INTERESTING!, and thoroughly inspiring newsletter. It is by far the best thing relating to living in the Algarve/Portugal that’s out there. And then this month it gets even better and is packed with pieces about people’s experiences of living in other places too. It’s jam-packed with excellent articles and loads of links to cracking websites which lead the reader off down enthralling paths. And then there’s Dave’s photography. Which is sublime."
