My work has always been inspired by the elements and the natural world.

I feel compelled to celebrate all its facets, seasons and details.

​

I make work that is both abstract and impressionistic reflecting the real world but conjured from my accumulated imagination.

I work to evoke a sense of a memory or a feeling of a beloved or remembered place, enticing you, the viewer, to enter into these quiet place that are some how familiar.

​

These works are made up of acrylics, oils, watercolour, pencils, pastels, spray and house paints that are mainly on wooden panels and stretched canvas in various shapes and sizes.  ​

I often add found materials such as leaves, seed heads, stones, pine needles, fossils, soil clay and sand adding a 3d element to areas of the composition. 

​

My titles come from music I love, film I enjoy and books I have fraught and won.

I am particularly drawn to outsider artists, the irreverent ones like Turner, Bacon, Schiele, Richter, Twombly, Kiefer, Nolan and Hockney. 

​​​

These pieces calm my busy mind and I hope you enjoy them in your life for many years to come.

​

Love, peace, and paint from me and the woofs. :) X
