About Me

I studied Fine Art at Winchester School of Art and Coventry Polytechnic. Over the years I have worked across many different mediums and disciplines including textiles, ceramics, digital art, as well as painting. Because Life is full of twists and turns I had a long break from painting but I am delighted to be producing art again.

Colour and process are central themes in my work as I explore the push and pull that takes place in the dialogue between me and the medium.

The tree and flower motif started appearing in my work partly because it felt like a good place to start but also because of my wonder, admiration and fascination of the natural world. How strange that we are made from the same but different configuration of cells and atoms. So many varied and beautiful things made from the same building blocks.

Drawing plays an important part in my art practice and feeds and offers a foundation for much of the work that I do. Drawing is the discipline that then allows me to freely explore in painting more than what I see. The paintings are as much about my own feelings, perceptions, and moods as they are an exploration of paint, colour, line, shape and texture.
