My Background

Having worked in the Pottery Industry as a painter for the majority of my life, creativity cannot fail to be a large part of my make up.

I grew up with a mother who painted in Watercolour. I enjoyed drawing and painting and finding work in a World-renown Pottery kept me involved in the creative life. A return to relief printing in 2019 cemented my commitment to the medium.

Linocut started for me as a child. Introduced to the magic of printmaking by my friends mother, I remember marvelling at her work, fascinated by the process and the result.

Linocut started for me as a child. Introduced to the magic of printmaking by my friends mother, I remember marvelling at her work, fascinated by the process and the result. I returned to it later in life after finding that painting as an occupation had somewhat diminished the joy of painting as a hobby. 

So, carefully cutting each intricate block with gouges, printing the image onto beautiful Somerset paper and hand-printing on a Gunning No. 3 press became my joy. It never fails to provide me with excitement and anticipation at finding out just what the image will be and of course, each print is unique even within the same print run. Now, being a printmaker and artist is a large part of my everyday life.

The natural world, surrounding us here at Red Cottage, is a constant source of inspiration and enjoyment. Each season providing a new aspect through which to view nature and a different feel to our lives here. 

I am constantly seeing things, places, plants that I want to put into my work. Maybe something from my daily life, maybe a small fern growing from the stone wall, once the door of a falling down barn. They lodge, like tiny seedlings, waiting to be shown the sun and to appear  somewhere in amongst a design.
