Artist Statement

I am a printmaker living in Norwich producing prints from a small etching press on a tea trolley in the corner of my dining room. I find my inspiration in my surroundings; my garden, dog and chickens closer to home and the Norfolk countryside, farm animals and coast further afield. Recent work is inspired by the trees I see whilst walking my dog. The patterns they make silhouetted against the sky, the play of light through the branches and the shadows cast by the morning sun.
I don’t have a background in printmaking, I did ceramics as the practical side of my Art Education Studies degree, so I am fairly new to it having started a couple of years ago, but find it happily consuming all my time as I try out new techniques.
