artist statement
In my latest work, I use inspiration from remembered poems, nursery rhymes and stories that left me full of wonder and fuelled my imagination. I loved the way the stories were told with an enchanting sweetness about them even when the tale was grim and dark. I have attempted to convey these impressions in my work using paint and carefully chosen subjects, colour, objects and ephemera. These bits and pieces bring their own history and a renewed value in merging together with paint and ink to tell tales that are both imagined and true.
