Details
My work is sometimes rooted in the traditions of observation and investigation of form and colour, and at other times it starts from the more conceptual end with interventions and installations, participation, and making things happen.
Being an artist enables me to travel without fuss between different worlds. An artist has great freedom to observe, comment on and draw attention to what seems intriguing and important.
An artist
My practice has recently moved from watercolour towards painting in acrylics, in which agricultural and rural forms and colours gradually evolve into allusive abstraction. Alongside that process I still work with a variety of 3D media, especially plaster, wire, paper, clay and wool. Drawing is a key activity. I teach and offer workshops , usually for adults.
