ABOUT

I continue to develop my career in visual art. My practice includes mixed media painting, drawing, printmaking and artists' books. My work, is inspired by the natural environment, exploring the landscape and people in the landscape. I run workshops and undertake commissions. 

 

At the Foxlowe Arts Centre, in Leek, I curate, with colleagues, Lynda Pritchard and Julie Holmes, the Drawing Room Café art space.

I have exhibited in the UK and USA.

 

For most of my life I worked internationally in industry and higher education. In Manchester I collaborated with fellow academics, engineers, artists and industry to develop postgraduate education in conceptual design for combined groups of fine art and engineering students. Holding a foundation degree, with distinction, in Creative Art and Design Practice, from the University of Derby, I continue my eduction in Fine Art at Sheffield Hallam University .
