Ruth qualified as a graphic designer specialising in illustration in 1986. She then gained a teaching qualification.

After leaving mainstream teaching, she ran the sucessful Art studio 'Wickerfish' in Mawdesley Lancashire for 12 years. She has recently relocated to Sedbergh in Cumbria where she shares a studio space with her partner and fellow artist Stuart Gray at Farfield Mill. Here they work and sell their paintings. Ruth enjoys painting in a variety of media but her first love is watercolour.
