Inspired by the Cornish Coast
The Cornish coast is my sole inspiration, most specifically the water’s edge and the spaces between high and low tide. Walking, photographing, gathering, writing, sketching, printmaking, collage and painting are all part of my interdisciplinary art practice.
Exploration is at the heart of my approach - with each series of work, I investigate new ways to express my fascination with the water's edge and the ‘tiny treasures’ found there.
Rich surfaces, colourful coastal palettes and expressive mark-making draw the viewer closer and evoke memories of favourite coastal places and things. Shapes, colours and textures observed at the meeting of land and sea are constant motifs in my work.
My mission is to bring the coast to you - memories of beach walks and rockpooling, seaside holidays, the smell of salt air and feel of seaspray on your face. Moments of calm and relaxation in busy lives. I hope my work evokes happy memories for you and shows you my love for beautiful Cornwall.
