Media Type
Mixed media, inspired by the colours and places in the local landscape and ‘lively’ still life subjects.
Biography/Details
I enjoy working in my surroundings en Plein air, in my garden or the beautiful Suffolk landscape, often using these sketches as a basis for mixed media work in the studio, using watercolour, acrylic inks, oil pastels and water soluble crayons, and occasionally gelli printed tissue fragments to add texture or interest.
I am attracted by colour especially in still life compositions, and like to challenge myself by using colour and composition to inject a sense of energy into a static subject.
I am a member of several local art groups, and have exhibited with them successfully.
I also enjoy the ‘cross-pollination’ that takes place when tackling a subject in common with fellow artists.
