Artist's StatementMy prints are inspired by a lifelong love of the natural world and my experiences working as an ecologist in particular. Many of my prints feature species I helped conserve or have observed in the wild, or habitats I have worked in. I am interested in creating prints rooted in landscapes that are meaningful to me and I am also very excited by patterns and textures in nature. Reduction linocutting is one of my favourite methods as I like the element of danger! I love colour, creating subtly coloured prints in small variable editions. In my recent work I have focused on water, its movement and the play of light on it. I also enjoy teaching printmaking workshops in my studio in Hilton. See my website for my details.
