I am a new printmaker. My work draws deep inspiration from the architecture and landscape of my local area, it’s history and natural beauty. I am interested in how we navigate this landscape, from the shifting contours of Dartmoor to the buildings that inhabit our local towns and villages, our relationship with these environments and the deep connections that we have to certain places.
The majority of my work is created using drypoint techniques on Tetrapak. I like being able to use a throw away material to create something beautiful while giving it a new purpose and reducing landfill waste.
When I produce a print, I try to include as much detail and texture as possible. My hope is that the viewer is able to explore the image and build a picture of the history of the place and its story.
