ABOUT MY WORK

I am a painter and mixed media artist living in St Ives, Cornwall. My textured paintings and mixed media pieces are usually worked in a subtle colour palette of soft blue-greys and an important part of much of my work is the layering of surface texture with acrylic paints, various mediums and the inclusion of fragments of personal letters, various old texts and ephemera. I also enjoy including found objects, which are often foraged when out walking.

Unable to paint every day and while waiting for those 'sparks of inspiration' I like to work in other media to keep the creative juices running. I always have a sketchbook on the go and I love to be simultaneously working on altered and artists' books; papier mache vessles; exquisite art dolls and small assemblages. As a complete contrast I love producing my large range of one of a kind semi-precious beaded jewellery which allows me to enjoy colour and texture in a different way.

The full range of my work can be purchased from my shared studio gallery space in the Downalong area of St Ives - Back Road Artworks. We are open there most days (01736 791571). My work is also shown in various galleries across the country.

My work can also be viewed by appointment in my small studio space in my cottage in St Ives, where I also teach various workshops.
