An introduction to my work and some of my recent paintings
|
I am a semi abstract artist working mainly in oil pastels, chalk pastels, watercolours and mixed media.
My inspirations are the sea, the countryside and how they are occupied by people and animals. This comes from a love of walking in the South Downs and Europe and wild swimming. |
Heather and gorse in the South Downs - acrylic and ink on paper - 21x29cm - £150 framed
|
Sutton Bank Cliffs - chalk pastel on paper - 59x50cm - £500 unframed
|
|
I work from the photographs I take, from sketches and from the feelings evoked by found objects and materials. When I paint I use multiple layers of ink, watercolour, acrylic, salt, sometimes adding mixed media, charcoal, pencil and blurring and blending with my fingers and found objects. In this way my paintings have a depth of field and agency, textures, interleaved with light and movement.

I work from the studio in my attic in Felpham overlooking the sea and in Loire Valley. I have exhibited in the Peggy Jay Gallery in Hampstead, The Landmark Arts Centre in Richmond-Upon-Thames and widely in Sussex
