I work primarily within the medium of linocuts and collage, where I’m drawn to nature and mythology.
I’m particularly interested in the folklore of Britain and Ireland (my heritage) and the symbolism of plants.
My work also reflects an interest in ancient celestial events, Illuminated Manuscripts and medieval herbals, along with ancient texts such as the Book of Miracles.
Pattern and decoration also features heavily, as I’ve a love for the decorative arts in all it’s forms.
Lover of the natural world, my prints are inspired by nature and folklore. I am based in London, (U.K) though am constantly drawn to the beauty of nature and its place within our world.
I began producing etchings and collographs at art college, and came to linocut printmaking much later.
I really fell in love with the process of linocut; something about the carved line as a way to translate my sketches, and to explore pattern and texture.
I have studied at a variety of London Art institutions: Chelsea College of Art, UAL (Foundation course in Art and Design) Kingston University (BA Hons Fine Art) Goldsmiths University (PGCE in Secondary Art and Design) and London College of Communication, UAL (Postgraduate Diploma in Digital Surface Design).
