I am English and emigrated to New Zealand with my husband in 1999, since when I have been able to pursue a long held dream of expressing myself with paint. Ideas for my work come from a variety of sources, including images from the natural world, dreams, emotions and memories. These are portrayed through a mix of colour, texture and contrast that evolve during the act of painting.
I enjoy drawing and pastel work, and paint with acrylic on canvas, often incorporating collage and
textured elements. For me one of the many joys of painting is the continuous
exploration and development of ideas, and my hope is that the resulting work will give pleasure and invite quiet contemplation.
