Having lived on the Mendip Hills for nearly 30 years, I   love to capture the atmosphere of the local Mendip landscape in monochromatic drawings using charcoal or graphite. More recently I have been exploring printmaking techniques, in particular monotypes, as a medium through which I can achieve the changing moods and wonderful contrasts of light and dark.  
I enjoy entering my work into open submission exhibitions and, amongst others, have most recently had work selected for the Bath Society of Artists 118th Open Exhibition and the Royal Bath & West Show Open where I was awarded second prize for my charcoal drawing ‘In the Pig Pen’.
 
“I would describe myself as a direct painter who likes to respond to a subject in an immediate and expressive manner with the aim of revealing a certain passion or evoking a certain mood.”
