Biography
My work consists of limited edition silk screen prints taken from my original drawings, depicting local scenes. I have combined my work with my own curiosity for my surroundings with an aim to inspire exploration and evoke memories, whilst viewing the subjects as if they have just been rediscovered.
There is a considered use of colour in my work and screen printing allows me to create the juxtaposition of the flat colour with the detail from my drawings, bringing another dimension and depth to the original image as well as a feeling of nostalgia.
