As an artist printmaker, a gardener for wildlife and a committed environmentalist, I seek out insects, birds and plants during the changing seasons, to observe the interconnectedness of all things in the natural world ... the ecosystem.
My studio is a converted double garage with a lovely view of the garden. I've been a printmaker for over 20 years and am a graduate of the Cambridge School of Art.
I carve my own designs into wood, print them on my hand operated etching press onto Fabriano Rosaspina printmaking paper, colour them with artists watercolours, then sign and title. They are original prints in variable un-numbered editions.
I especially love to see butterflies and moths when I'm out and I use butterfly-conservation.org to identify unusual ones so will donate 20% of the item price to this worthwhile charity ... they are currently raising funds to create new urban wild spaces to help declining butterfly and moth populations.
