I work with engraved Boxwood blocks and plywood, enjoying how marks cut into wood develop the feeling of movement and space in my initial sketches. Observation of small movements, such as the turn of a bird in flight or an oar pulling into water, are the starting point for my images. This idea of retaining a sense of motion, and introducing the viewer to a narrative, has become central to my approach to printmaking, both in the small size engravings and larger scale two colour prints from plywood panels.
