About the artist:
Living and working in the Southeast of England my paintings are all influenced by walking and travel. Through a series of drawings, paintings and photographs I capture my responses to people and places along the way. Reflecting on the feelings, thoughts and memories evoked by the experience when making the work. The ever changing landscape always opens up new vistas. Trying to capture a moment, which resonates for me, where the different elements of light, colour and shade come together in a way that can represent something new. I try to work quickly using intuitive marks in order to encourage this new image to emerge organically. Each piece like a poem, is a tapestry of multiple experiences, inviting viewers to engage with the extraordinary found in the ordinary. Sometimes it is in the everyday, such as driving or shopping that ideas and visual inspiration occur.
