I am an creative practitioner living and working in Cornwall.
I am currently re-evaluating my practice after a series of personal hiccoughs which startled me so much, I completely lost track of whether I was going backwards, forwards or simply edging sideways, slightly bewildered.
My new painting works are focused on play, journeys and The timelessness of humans coming together in community and communion.
These will be appearing over the coming months.
I am developing several stories at present aimed, after some deliberation, towards middle grade readers where I am seeking to explore the wonder of life and the natural world, and play with abstract concepts within the themes of journeys, collective humanity, death and the macabre.
