About me

Welcome to my website and thankyou for your interest in my work. I hope you find something to enjoy!

My creative life is focused around a sense of place, to include the natural world and the built environment.

My practice is informed by observation and research; selection and interpretation; looking to identify connections, histories and stories alongside reflecting upon issues pertinent to the changing and sometimes vulnerable environments that I am exploring.

Prior to setting up my studio practice  I gained a BA (Hons) Degree in Fine Art and an MA in Museums and Galleries in Education. Following a teaching career in adult education I took up the post of Head of Education at the Design Museum, followed by that of Outreach Officer at the National Gallery, London. I then became Director of Making it Work, an Arts Council funded initiative to make the case for support for craft in education and my final formal post was that of General Secretary of the National Society for Education in Art and Design.

I am now studio based in Winchester, Hampshire exploring and developing my creative practice through drawing, painting and print.
