Biography:
My work depicts the local landscape, layering location, geographical references and elements of the local flora and fauna. The paintings and mixed media drawings I create, capture the differing perspectives of the landscape – combining real location with fragments of maps – morphing real places with imagined worlds. Recent drawings refer to the man-made and the organic by combining trees, leaves and maps together, with the beech leaf becoming a reoccurring motif throughout my work.
I exhibit regularly throughout Buckinghamshire and am a member of the Bucks Art Society.
