- About Me / Artist's Statement:
- I originally trained as an Illustrator , specialising on the Post Grad course at St Martins, and worked for several years as a freelance Illustrator, mainly Editorial work for Observer, Sunday Times, Best and Bella magazines etc. My last project was for Hodder Wayland in 2000. I moved to Cyprus in 1989, where I taught in Colleges and Schools and ran my own Art Gallery called Mermaid in Limassol for almost 5 years. From here I continued to freelance as an Illustrator/Designer, devloping my Painting and teach private students. I have always taught, for 20 something years now, mainly in F.E, and lectured at Weymouth College until 2006. I still lecture p/t at Bournemouth and Poole College and ocassional Visiting Tutor at the Arts Institute. I also run private classes and workshops from home (please enquire for details). When I relocated to Dorset in 1997 my work began to change, becoming absorbed by the beautiful, dramatic and powerful coastline and ancient terrain . I work in mixed media, and live on Portland . The Sea is a powerful source of inspiration for me.
I combine layers of plaster, acrylic/oil glazes and raw pigments, and the occasional use of iridescents and golds. I draw and sketch often on location , but it is my memory and feelings which dictate the final outcomes.
My intentions are,to evoke the spirit and essence of places that I have visited, recorded and committed to memory.
