About The Artwork
SWEET RAIN: I'm always looking out for colour combinations, patterns especially in unusual places. This painting is a result of my daughters art course work on sweets, she'd left her mixing dish/palette outside and subsequently over time the paint was diluted and washed away. I tried to recreate this using 'soak n stain' as per Joan Mitchell and dripping paint mixed with glue to give almost translucent quality to the 'rain' I Studied Ceramics and Textiles at College, and try to recreate my favourite glazes and textures using different mediums. Paints of varying consistencies, and bases, adding glue and alcohol and thinners. Building up layers over several weeks. I love how there is interaction between the wet paint, how added moisture or direct heat influences the outcome: and as it dries, cracks and peels, gives texture and interest, often revealing the sub surface. I am happy that I am not fully in control of the painting and it is left to speak for itself.

United Kingdom
Based In the UK, I come from a family of painters and photographers, now 5 generations, who can also be found on here. My art work is largely based on sample Textiles and Ceramic Glazes, which I studied whilst at college. I Use natural products to make many of the pigments I use. For a number of years i was an early years practitioner, helping Pre-school children to express themselves through music, movement and art. I am especially interested in a childs' communicative development with 'mark making'and how they express themselves through colour and form and how different mediums react with each other, how they can change overtime especially given different environmental influences, heat light moisture, for example. Again, this is something I have been exploring in my own creative process. My hope is to engage move intrigue and inspire my viewer. Many of the pieces reflect the music I was listening to (LOUD!) whilst in the studio or a lyric that just stuck in my head. I love working with colour, mixing materials, and am often torn between manipulating and 'lets see what happens when...'
