Artist’s Statement

I graduated as a mature student in 2014 with a Fine Art degree (first class) from Wirral Metropolitan College, followed by a year’s Fellowship.

Much of my recent work is based on observations recorded during journeys by rail and road. They reflect my interest in the interface between the private worlds of individuals and those aspects which are revealed, often unintentionally, to the public gaze. The images capture fleeting details of the world outside from the perspective of a detached but curious observer. I use my own photographs as the starting point for my mixed media pieces, combining different printing techniques and building up translucent layers of print and paint.
