This website shows two bodies of work. The Crow and Hands series, created between 2018 and 2022, was based on half-remembered moments from a childhood in an English mining town. This series of paintings and prints came at the end of a body of work that included sculpture, installations, artist's books, and animation..
The newer work is a series of oil paintings produced after I moved from Chicago, Illinois, to Tucson, Arizona. Starting with my sketchbook drawings of the desert, I filtered the shapes through memory into semi-abstract patterns, using a colour palette that is brighter than the colours of the desert, as a way of heightening the emotional response.
I have lived for short and long periods in France, Spain, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Holland. Since 2002 I have lived in the USA.
