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
Earth lines is inspired by ploughed fields but when I'm working on the foreground area, it becomes more about colour and texture interactions and abstract mark-making. The trees give focus, contrast and a sense of scale. Print sold out but cards available https://t.co/FDtE8nF9AR
The colours and textures are carefully chosen to give the illusion of recession through space. A steady, pastel background with the boldest colours in the foreground - vibrant pinks, yellows and sea blue. A rift in the land - https://t.co/ucG4ad9ocK #landscapeartist #springtime
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/hTZM1jhjMj
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/Nr9wTuqktv
This large fiery sky began as an exploration in colour. I wanted to find a way to achieve a sunset sky that wasn't delicate pinks but brooding, powerful reds. https://t.co/EDRpDF3JRE
