Artist's StatementBorn in Suffolk, I studied Fine Art at Norwich School of Art and Goldsmiths College. My career as an Art and Art History teacher spanned 40 years and throughout that time I continued to develop my own ideas and work. In my studio at St Barnabas Press, Cambridge, I am constantly pushing the boundaries of possibility by exploring new ways to realise my vision through the medium of silk screen print. My inspiration currently comes from land/seascapes in North Norfolk, Suffolk, the Fens, the South of France and the East Coast of Scotland. Through layering I am interested in simplifying, abstracting and capturing the effect of different weather fronts, seasons and times of day on familiar land/seascapes. Although my prints are sometimes part of a series each one is different and whatever the format I often stress the horizontal as I aim to produce images that have a peaceful, almost meditative effect on the viewer.

Conversation Pieces
During lockdown I produced a series of small gouache paintings of shells and stones collected when walking along the beach at Ethie Haven and Lunan Bay on the east coast of Scotland. I was accompanied in turn by each of my three grandchildren and as we walked we talked. The conversations we had have become treasured memories.

Silence
These images were inspired by my experience of waking up in the morning and realising, before I opened the blinds ,that it had snowed whilst I was asleep. The quality of light in my bedroom was different and external sounds were muffled.
