About
I create vibrant mixed media/collage work that often explores the tension between chaos and order, emotion and structure.
I layer bold colour fields, creating textured surfaces and symbolic motifs that can sometimes feel visceral, dreamlike or even devotional.
My figurative paintings have a surreal and sometimes naive quality focussing on shape, colour and emotion rather than realism.
I often use repurposed surfaces and frames to add to the vintage feel of my artwork.
I started painting very late in life and in my 60s got my first solo exhibition which was great fun and very successful- so I carrried on painting and developing my particular style of work which I now am proud to have in exhibitions and galleries. You will find me most days in my studio in North Devon painting away and struggling along with all the other artists out there!
