My work is deeply inspired by the British coast and the countryside where I live. Whether it is a close up observation, or a sweeping landscape, the majesty of the mountains, or my connection with the Bay, it is all a source of inspiration which filters though into my art. The rhythms of nature help me understand that although ever changing, the cycle continues, much like life. I use layers to represent the layers of our lives, and the colours in nature to influence my colour palettes. My preference for muted tones adds a healing and calm element to my work. Abstraction gives the viewer the opportunity to make their own connections. I want my art to draw attention to the beauty around us and help us take notice, calm the soul and stir the senses.
