About The Artwork
Original hand pulled 8 colour screen print, image size: 28.5 x 20 cm on 40 x 30 cm Heritage White 315 gsm paper, from a limited edition of 50. Beautiful church with pink roof, set in a landscape above the black basalt sand beach at Vik, Iceland. Vík is a remote seafront village in south Iceland with a black basalt sand beach. It sits in the shadow of Mýrdalsjökull glacier, which is on top of the Katla volcano. An eruption of Katla could melt enough ice to trigger an enormous flash flood, potentially large enough to obliterate the entire town. The town's wooden church, located high on a hill, is believed to be the only building that would survive such a flood. There is a legend of a husband who found his wife taken by the two trolls, frozen at night. The husband made the two trolls swear to never kill anyone ever again as his wife was the love of his life. Her spirit wanders out among the trolls, rocks, and sea at Reynisfjara.

I am a screen printer and artist, currently living in London. I love to travel around the world, exploring unusual places and cultures. I create series of multi-layered screen prints, working from my own photographs and drawings. My recent travels to Japan have inspired this series of prints. I was drawn to the tranquility of the temples and the carefully curated landscapes surrounding them. Using numerous layers of screen printing, I have built up a painterly image to convey the stillness and beauty. Gold leaf has then been applied to the prints, as it is applied to the temples themselves, to purify and protect them from negativity. An elected member of the Southbank Printmakers Gallery. I also organise North London Printmakers and curate several stands at the Affordable Art Fair. I have work in the Victoria and Albert museum archives and have collectors around the world.
