DRAWINGS
Representing Familiar Places in Unique Ways
I produce pen, ink and watercolour drawings of landscapes, cityscapes, individual buildings and animals, predominantly in Wales. All of my art draws influence from the local Welsh landscape and context as well as many cultures and art forms. These are all combined to create a style that is unique and contemporary. I find the beauty, detail and patterns of familiar settings and objects, and reinterpret these into my artwork. The pen and ink drawings represent familiar places in unique ways. The landscape and city drawings are built up with often repetitive line work to create an unusual and rich tapestry of patterns. The pictures of specific buildings are reminiscent of historic architectural drawings with a modern and clean twist. The original drawings are turned into digital prints which aim to offer affordable artwork to a wide audience. Both the drawings and prints are extremely detailed and intricate and aim to capture the spirit of a place.

OBJECT ART
The Curation of Found and Collected Objects
Beauty can be found in the most common and familiar things. I gather found and collected objects, before curating, composing, assembling, altering and crafting these into bespoke boxes. As a result of this process, these ordinary, everyday artefacts are transformed into a rich and textural whole. The boxes often juxtapose natural and man-made artefacts, combined within a uniquely crafted frame. These 'boxes' capture a place and time through craft and making, and have been popular as bespoke commissions, making each box personal and relevant. My work creates a unique and interesting way to explore. capture and document a subject visually.
