Artist’s Statement:
“It is in the sea or by the sea, when I feel most alive. When I am away from it, I am drawn to capturing it, trying to create a window to escape back to that memory, those colours, that day.
I feel that paintings should transport you elsewhere, and where better than the Purbecks?
The diversity of the soft sand dunes at Studland to the rugged cliffs at Lulworth, provide an endless palate to work from. I can often be found walking the coast paths for inspiration, alongside my golden retriever, Bear.
I largely paint with acrylics on either canvas or balsa wood and I love the way that the paint dictates how and where the light hits the sea.
When someone recognises a view from a painting as being ‘their view’- their favourite walk, their proposal spot; that connection is just magical. In recent commissions I have really enjoyed adding distant but recognisable figures(and their dogs!)Through painting, I love being able to transport someone back to that memory, to capture for them forever a moment that they thought was lost.”
