I create my drawings and paintings in my house, going from room to room at will, I make my studio where I find my materials and there are many. I am constantly discovering new ways to create art. I like art materials and processes and actively seek out new and traditional. Lately quite old materials spanning back to illuminated texts of which I am still learning.
I studied at Manchester School of Art obtaining a Fine Art degree when I was much older. I consider my art to be from years and years of practice. I am self taught first and foremost. Being self taught has given me a natural curiosity, a need to experiment, an open minded attitude, self determination and independence.
My work has found its way to various places both nationally and internationally. From institutions to personal collections. I feel very fortunate to now be able to give all of my time to my art.
