Painting mostly in oils. I am attracted to the edges of the land, be it coastline or the rocky edges to be found in the British landscape. My images are a mixture of bold strokes, impasto and subtle glazes.

My paintings are of places I know very well and visit over and over again, both literally and imaginatively. I am attracted to the ‘edges of the land’ including our fabulous and varied coastline as well as the rocky edges to be found throughout the British landscape.

I paint using oils, acrylics and ink and revel in the flexibility of these media. I use brushes, fingers, sticks, knives, pens or anything else to hand to make marks on the canvas. Using various materials, such as sand, paste, even sea-coal, to create texture. My paintings are a mixture of bold strokes and impasto effects. More subtle areas are created through the use of glazes and fine brush work.

I hope my viewers are able to uncover in my work some of the magic I feel in the places I am inspired to paint.

"your art so so evocative, almost ethereal, and yet so grounded in familiarity and intimacy. (comment from an admirer)

STUDIO: My studio is a light, airy room with french windows leading out to a beautiful, landscaped garden. Work in progress and sketch books available to view. New this year is a newly, refurbished gallery space.
