My paintings are a search for meaning, exploring the repeated patterns in our relationship to the social, familial and natural world. Through a process of intuitive responses to  each mark made on the canvas, each decision calls to the next until the paintings’ final place is found.

We have been in a conversation, the painting and I, sometimes over many months.

It is a collaboration and we know  it is completed when we both fall silent,  the energy is settled and we can say no more is needed.

 

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the d.

2022 Stone Dogs

In the style of cave paintings and carvings on stone and in the landscape, the Stone Dog series was created in response to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the displacement of peoples across the world. Raw and primal expression, contrasted with the softness and gentleness of the colour palette, these works explore our need for safety, security and comfort, needs not met during times of conflict in homes and nations. The use of the dog as a symbol draws on memory of the dogs who protected me when violence broke out - the soft warmth reassuring and protecting. It honours dogs working on the front line, sniffing for explosives, drugs, cancer, epilepsy, guiding the sight impaired and healing through their presence and touch.
