Details
I use a variety of mediums, taking inspiration from my surroundings. While much of my drawing and painting has focused on structure - both man-made and in the natural world - I'm particularly interested in the decorative elements found in old churches and find that these lend themselves well to the process of print making. Layering and fragmenting imagery suggests the faded traces of past times and those who have gone before.
I enjoy trying out new techniques and exploring different ways in which to combine them and I draw as a means of relaxing and switching off.
I am a mixed media artist, working with paint, print and a range of drawing materials.
I graduated in 2015 with a BA(Hons) in Fine Art from Hereford College of Arts, having first taken the Portfolio Course and then the Diploma course as a mature student, and spent 3 years working part-time as an Art Technician at a local secondary school.
I have taken part in hArt each year, working as part of a group.
