Tree prints

Last winter I drew different trees and since then I have been making lino cuts of these drawings. I now have fourteen. With winter coming it is time to get drawing again as I have an ambitious plan for a final piece in a couple of years time.

This piece below was made for this group show. The final piece is a giclee print. The second piece is an installation. (the framed image in the right has been removed and is installed as planned on the other side of the gallery).

Studio update



Art Jumble Sale at Limbo

Limbo put out a call to associate members to rent a stall in the project space to sell unwanted studio materials, tools etc and old work. This ran parallel to the artists car boot fair at Turner Contemporary. I participated with some casting materials, an old projector, some other unwanted equipment from Uni days as well as a small table with old silkscreen artist proofs I included one or two good bargain prints! 
It was an interesting and really creative event with a performative element.

Art Trail

Some local artists organised an art trail as part of our local Oyster festival. A time to take stock of some of my prints and to show off my new shed and studio to be. This will be the fourth space that I will have worked in since I left Uni last year! It is called studio hopping I've been told!



 Yes, the yellow tray is the hint that I got my tangrams out for any visiting children!


Shelves yet to be built... I am still keeping my studio at Limbo for a while.

V22 residence.

I had the use of a huge new studio in Ilderton Road South Bermondsey for a month this June.  Enjoying the exciting  challenge of working in a different environment under new conditions away from home turf, I experimented with materials and objects that I found outside of the studio. It was a daunting space to move into at first. Here is some of the work that came from responding to this space, situation and the local environment of South Bermondsey.

Work in progress











and there is more! ...

From Studio to Gallery

The piece 'Margate 1' that I have been working on has finally moved into a gallery space. I was unsure how it would work along side of the others work so was looking forward to putting it to the test. Work is in progress for 'Margate 2'.
