My aim is to capture the dynamic natural line, form and colour of landscape, contrasted to the 'man made' features - walls, houses, field lines, boats etc. by painting on canvas and board with textiles, fabric and acrylic to produce depth and texture.   My emotional response to all these elements are then reflected in my work. 

I live in West Cornwall and find the diversity of landscape together with the unique weather stimulating and challenging.  I also travel to photograph and paint other 'wild' and remote areas in the UK and abroad.  

The inspiration for my work is either from sketchbook drawings undertaken during field trips or photographs and/or memories of particular occasions to add and convey atmosphere and emotion.  My photographs are based purely on instinct and a desire to share insights.
