I am an artist living and working in the inspiring and ancient New Forest, UK. Direct observation from life is integral to my work. For landscape work, I may complete a piece solely outside or work up sketches and notes later in the studio for more involved projects.

Landscapes

In 2026 it is my intention to further develop my artistic identity. I have three main directions for the year ahead. I'm working towards integrating more folklore and spiritual narratives into my landscapes. I aim to abstract landscapes, focusing on my emotional reactions to being in and observing the Forest. I will also be using my press setup to further explore printmaking.These will be developed from my sketches of the area.

Innerscapes

I am also collaborating with a group of postmenopausal women artists led by Stephanie James @stephanieljames, "exploring ageing, loss, and transformation. Together creating new work that challenges invisibility and celebrates mature women's creativity." We are looking inward, discussing and exploring and will be exhibiting at SPUDworks, Sway in April 2026 as part of the
In Bounds project - ahead of an exhibition in Venice in September.
