Shirley Batten-Smith on Clubhouse

Bio

I retired from a professional life of 40 years in banking, financial and legal services in 2019 spending the last 10 years running my own Will writing business. I am now an office administrator for TS Technology - the UK and Ireland agent for NSK Nakanishi micro machining machine tool attachments widely used in aerospace, medical and automotive industries. In my free time I regularly exhibit and sell my art. My lifelong interest in aviation started from being the offspring of both parents serving in the RAF and WRAF respectively and five years myself in the WRAF. My husband is the Owner of TS Technology and eventually I put two and two together and joined the Guild of Aviation Artists which has inspired me to now use my art to create images of aircraft.
