My studio is based in Oxfordshire and my practice focuses on the constant evolvement of mark making and the exploration of surfaces and space. 

Observing and recording different spaces, their functions and how landscapes both interior and exterior get intertwined. Movement, traces, memories and structures are remerging themes within the work. My practice explores the need to make connections with the familiar- using traces, fragments of places and spaces to rearrange these and formulate the familiar.

I have over 20 years’ experience exhibiting and working as an artist locally and internationally. I have been an artist in residence in lots of spaces over the years and the nature of my work is about responding and recording the surroundings that inspire and inform my thinking. Through Painting and drawing I invite the audience to view the spaces with a different perspective. During my residencies I observe and gather as much visual information as possible then present my recordings within the space itself. I have exhibited in this format within a number of spaces including The Pitt Rivers museum, Oxford Botanic Garden, Pegasus Theatre Oxford, and Cornerstone. I am interested in how landscapes are constantly distracted and interrupted by memories of the past. My painting and drawing acts as a vehicle to convey these concepts and ideas.
