The paintings I produce are inspired by my lifelong love of nature and wild places and my subjects are often natural objects found while exploring beaches and countryside. Although much of my work features the natural world, anything may be considered a subject, with the emphasis on exploring form and colour.
I gather information with sketchbook and camera, and I find that sketchbook work often suggests ideas for finished pieces. I enjoy working with a variety of media, often mixing them, depending on the subject, the mood, and the effect I wish to achieve.
In addition to working on canvases and panels, I produce slate 'look-alike' tiles, little trompe l'oeil paintings, adorned with wild flowers, and luscious fruits.
I have been a member of the Harding House Gallery Co-operative for several years, where I enjoy displaying and selling my work, my part in running the gallery, and the company of the other members.
Beautiful works :)
