With this landscape, I returned to my earlier theme of seeing the landscape as a patchwork of fields. The strongly coloured foreground has a sense of the recession of plough lines but is really a great excuse for having fun with colour and pattern! https://t.co/svuaBjXOSE
"People often ask me what the patterns signify in my work - is it roots or geology below the ground or agricultural land marks? All on these and none! When I'm working, my focus is just on colour and pattern and creating beautiful patterns in nature.

I really felt I was getting somewhere with the gold/pink/grey combination of colours in the sunset sky for this one. There's a palpable sense of warm light which was what I was striving for. What do you think of 'bathed in light'? https://t.co/2ACK3a0DOP #printmaker #onlineart
"A glorious meadow with poppies in full bloom. I do these more summery pictures from time to time as a seasonal change from my more wintery work. I wanted to incorporate more varied shades of red and orange to give light and variety.

"Do you enjoy watching the quiet patience of a heron fishing in a pond or lake? There's something about the dusky grey feathers and the bend in their necks which is mesmerizing. This image is available as a greetings card. Part of my #BritishBirds series.

Final Colours: I've created many sunset skies using monotype printing but this one really seems to have the glow and intensity of a real sunset. The small trees give a hint of long summer days. You can watch a making-of video over on my blog: #sunset https://t.co/C28MdlWnSa
"Rather than a specific coastline, this image is about the joy and anticipation of approaching the sea and moving through the varied flowers and grasses along the way.

This large fiery sky began as an exploration in colour. People often ask me how I get the colours to glow. "Catch Fire" appears to radiate light because of colour juxtapositions. https://t.co/EDRpDFlkJc
"On the Right Path" is a hand-printed etching. I used two plates to build up the rich overlapping colours. Inspired by family trips to the seaside. Available mounted and framed. https://t.co/0q10fFqJah
