Over recent years I have been developing skills in a variety of media. I particularly enjoy experimenting in mixed media to create textural qualities.

My inspiration lies largely within the natural world of trees, flowers and landscapes which I interpret mostly in acrylic paint and painted collages. I sometimes venture into textiles and I enjoy combining printmaking with painting.

    Nice piece! Like a secret garden~

  • Thankyou, Julia, for commenting and favouriting. This wild garden opens off the path running alongside the herbaceous border ( which you can see in its later summer glory in another of my pastel paintings).
