Leaving school at 16, she went straight to Warrington College of Art to study a foundation course and learn the “correct” way to paint and draw. By following her love of art, she met the love of her life Martin, now her husband. A further 3 years spent studying Fashion and Textiles at Nottingham Trent Polytechnic armed her with a 1st class BA (hons) degree and licence to go out and take on the fickle world of fashion. For 25 years Alison worked in a high flying career of glamour and triviality, fretting about frocks and losing sleep over hem lengths. The experience held many lessons for her, including a high profile redundancy, stress induced cancer and an almost crippling confidence crisis. There were many moments of pure magic and joy, but eventually the gloss wore thin enough for her to see through it all. Taking a positive decision to work as a Freelance Consultant freed Alison to investigate other interests. . .including some personal and spiritual development through Reiki healing; initially as a client, but soon taking 1st and 2nd degree attunement.

It seems, this was a necessary route to open up the channels to get the “access” in place for what was to come. Since November 2001, when the very first angel made its surprise appearance in paint, Alison has increasingly dedicated herself to the work of bringing in the LIGHT. Over 5 years, her work has evolved to become ever more dynamic and emotionally challenging. Working from her small studio in Nottingham, Alison creates her paintings and produces her cards and other “DiViNELY INSPiRED PRoDuCTS” under the direct supervision of the Angelic Realms. Her work has flown internationally, as far a field as Canada, Hawaii, Japan, China, Europe and the USA. Working in a down to earth, modest way, Alison allows the angels to take centre stage and is always delighted when “EVeRYDaY ANGeLS” are recognised, and she, as the artist steps aside and lets them get on with it.”
