Please click here for examples of my work.

I am a Sheffield based visual and mixed media artist. I have graduated from Sheffield Hallam University in Fine Arts 2004.  I work with a variety of materials including encaustic wax, oils, acrylics in painting and mostly monoprints and collagraphs in printmaking. My works are mostly abstract and semi abstract paintings and prints which are derived from my personal experiences and feelings of certain places and nature.  

My work deals with nature and landscapes that are around me. I like to paint/print the vastness and then looking closely to the details of natural elements such as a leaf or a twig. Through my work and art practise I feel connected to the nature and feel rooted to ‘here and now’. My works are very expressive in nature. In printmaking I mostly do monoprints and collagraphs that are painterly in style. They are mostly abstract/semi abstract landscape paintings and or detailed botanical prints.

My process involves going for mindful walks or just be in a certain place. I then bring the feeling of the place along with photographs and sketches into my studio at the Exchange Place Studios and work intuitively with it. I also explore the notion of autotelic practises and bring for example leaves or twigs into my studio as if bringing a part of the nature with me in a tangible form and print from it.
