Description: Screenprint & Mixed media. Based on Geevor Tin Mines and I used my own photographs to produce a series of paintings and screenprints as a metaphor for the Holocaust and destroyed communities. The images on the wall are of the last men who worked the mine which was closed supposedly for a temporary period due to the fall in prices of tin but then the owners decided to let it flood and not reopen, the workers clothes are still where they left them thinking they would be returning. It struck a cord with me on what I had read about the holocaust victims and the story of this destroyed mining community. Geevor is now a museum and well worth a visit.

Born Manchester. I studied Fine Art painting & printmaking part time over 5 years as a mature student, whilst juggling a demanding job, and in 2007 obtained a Degree BA Hons Fine Art Painting/printmaking from Brighton University.I take much of my inspiration from disused buildings and industrial sites, and nature. I love life drawing and anything that inspires me. My degree works of screen prints & etchings are based on Geevor Tin mines in Cornwall and used as a metaphor for destroyed communities. More recent works result from taking my drawings or my photographs as a starting point, the resulting paintings are not a literal description, more about my initial experience. It is about capturing something of the memory, a certain feeling associated with subject or the atmosphere of buildings and places. I use watercolour, and acrylics with mixed media. I would also love to do more printmaking when I can afford the equipment and a space of my own. In 2022 one of my still life watercolour paintings of Nasturtiums and Cherries was selected as a floral tribute to appear in the book ' Christian Spurling Picture Me' A Marine Artist, edited by Steven D. Smale.
