People often ask me what the patterns signify. When I'm working, my focus is just on colour and pattern and creating a beautiful surface that relates to patterns in nature. By tapering the strips and drawing the trees, I can give a sense of perspective! https://t.co/Z5z9niZPpj
On the Rise: The crisp division between the intense patterns of the land and the clear cool air of the sky, reminds me of the Greek myth of Gaia (the earth) and Uranus (the sky) The trees seem to link the two realms. Original now sold #artshare https://t.co/hTZM1jyVaT
Home Time: an early piece getting to grips with using pattern in monotype. The patterns are printed from textured materials using three layers of multi-coloured ink. The diminishing lines lead the eye up to a cottage and hedgerow. Greetings cards: https://t.co/Nr9wTu8J4V

With this image, I really wanted to perfect the interaction of colours to give a glowing sense of light. I just love how the colours have come together in the sky; almost to give a real life 'photograph effect' with the textured art in the foreground. https://t.co/7Wrnp7Ufue

This is Sycamore Gap - our famous tree in the Northumberland National Park. It's the perfect subject for my style of work and people always ask me for it! The *original* painting for this is still available to purchase on my website - https://t.co/7leOEnbu9A #sycamoregap #neart
