In my images I seem to combine my love for painting and
for printmaking.
My work is compiled, I build layer after layer, sometimes
taking areas back to
where I started, reworking or allowing the beginings to
be exposed. Layers
are often thin and my tools are basic. Some papers and
canvas may go
through the press, some are hand pressed, all are painted
and repainted.
My work is often completed in a series, usually three
or four images evolve
at once. The images are often a response to a moment in
time, a scene. I look, observe, visually recording in
my mind but more importantly storing the
feeling I am experiencing from within. It is this combination
of vision and
feeling that I respond to in the studio. The vision may
not be recalled for
months or even years but when it does the work is spontanious,
taking me
and the media back to the moment.
When I sell my work I do not expect anyone else to share
the feeling I have experienced but I would like them to
just enjoy the outcome. However I do
challenge anyone to look at the sea, the sand, the sky
and the land, to close
your eyes and take in a large, deep breath and then open
your eyes and
observe, observe not only the scene but the feeling.
Collectors of my work are wide and varied. People buy
direct from galleries, commission work for specific spaces
or commission work that responds to a
certain place from within Cornwall. I also produce work
for corporate venues
and have created imagery for hotels, spas and businesses.
I have been told
that my vibrant modern style can transform an environment.
My studio is open by appointment and at various open
days across the year.
Do not hesistate to
