About me

I’m a printmaker based at Thames-Side Studios in London. I make my work in the print studio there and in my own studio on the same site, and I’m a member of Greenwich Printmakers, an artist-run gallery in Greenwich Market.

I primarily work in aquatint, etching and drypoint, but if another technique will suit an idea better, I’ll change my method.

I like to convey atmosphere, explore our relationship with the natural world, and inspire imagined stories. I'm interested in how the familiar can become suddenly strange because of a change in weather, light or time, and the idea that places experience things that we may or may not witness. My prints are usually a combination of observation and imagination, expressing my life, experiences and layered meanings through landscapes.

In my prints of wildlife, each bird or animal is based on an individual I’ve spent time observing. I aim to convey the character and behaviour of that particular creature, recording my experience and exploring the idea of watching and being watched. I put a particular focus on claws, feathers and beaks – the tools that have evolved to help it survive.

I print all my work by hand in small, limited editions. This physical creative process is one of the things that first drew me to printmaking. While modern life is full of technology and lived at a dash, printmaking can't be rushed – each step must be carefully carried out and fine adjustments must be made to cater for things like the changing temperature of the room. It's always exciting for me to peel back the paper to see the print I've just made. My heart races every time.

My work is available at Greenwich Printmakers, 1a Greenwich Market, SE10 9HZ, open daily 10.30am-5.30pm, or you can contact me.
