About The Artwork

I drew my friends' little girls playing on the sand when I was in Spain. They lived near the beach and spent their weekends exploring and inventing games to play. They were always really imaginative and creative. They seemed to inhabit their own little world. They lived quite a free life and spent a lot of time in the open air. One day it was quite windy and they had a kite, but it blew away and one of the girls chased after it. They were always happy and laughing. It was a healthy way to grow up.

I have been a painter-printmaker all my life. After school I went to art college in Amersham, UK to study painting and printmaking. My favourite subject-matter was flowers, trees and hedgerows in oils on a large scale and lithography, particularly fantasy and folkloric themes. I studied History of Art at University in Leicester, UK and afterwards took a teaching certificate in ceramics. I was a founder member of the Equinox Theatre Company in which I acted, sang danced and made the puppets. It was one of the first medieval revival companies in the country. I taught art and art history in a convent for a few years and then moved to Spain where I stayed for many years. I lived and worked in a beautiful garden studio with my dog and friends came to visit me. I painted them in my garden, sitting and thinking, My studio was open to everyone and once I had a visit from a snake! I studied etching and engraving in a Barcelona studio and since then most of my printmaking is drypoint engraving. Now I am back in England where I paint the trees, plants, rivers, ponds, insects, birds and animals near to wherever I am living and I enjoy listening to classical music , particularly Schubert, while I'm working. I am a teacher of yoga and meditation. I would like to be an owl or a fox for one night. - Nature sculpts the world through movement. Trees grow slowly, water runs fast. Each leaf, cloud, dragonfly's wing... is unique. Light permeates the invisible air. Mind dissolves into the object - there is no separation.
