Born and brought up in Yorkshire, I now live in Fife, Scotland. I enjoyed drawing and painting from an early age, and gained a degree in Art History from Clare College, Cambridge University. I spent a year on an arts and crafts course in Norway, and subsequently ran a craft knitwear business for 15 years, before returning to my early love for painting.
Working from home, I fit my art around family life, am a member of Visual Arts Scotland and I also exhibit periodically at 3D2D Art, Craft and Design events.
My preferred medium is watercolour; I enjoy the challenge of finding a balance between control and letting pigment and water 'find their own way'. I am passionately interested in nature and the environment, which provide the inspiration for my work. I particularly enjoy painting 'wilderness' landscapes and wildlife, and the sea, but local woods, plants and insects also provide limitless ideas for paintings.

ReplyDeleteHi Ken, thanks for the comment!
ReplyDeleteThe exhibition was a bit quiet, just a couple of sales. Seems a long time ago now!
I haven't been an active member of the club for a while now - maybe this will be the year I get involved again!
