‘I am an artist and a printmaker living and working in the North East of England. I studied printmaking during a degree in Fine Art at Manchester Metropolitan university and during a MA, also in Fine Art, at UCLan (University of Central Lancashire).
In my work I try to capture the essence of what it truly feels like to stand in a particular landscape, be it watching the endless changing of a shoreline as the sea ebbs and flows or be it standing surrounded by trees in the middle of a forest. Because I try to capture the felt experience of a space, I often mix photographic and hand drawn elements to move an image away from being purely documentative.’
