Handmade original prints documenting my exploration of and connection to place

I am fascinated by the impact humans have had on the landscape throughout history.  Through drawing and printmaking on location I record my experience of being in the landscape while secondary sources provide historical context.  I reflect on the layered relationship between people and place and consider how contemporary experience and historic land use create a sense of belonging and connection with the land that is passed through the generations.

​​

Working from my home studio in Ascot Berkshire, I use multiple printmaking techniques on paper to record the marks of human presence and consider the quiet power of place; how landscapes root us and record our collective past.  Each print is an invitation to slow down, to pause in the landscape, to reconnect with it and remember that we are a part of the natural world's ongoing story, especially in the places we each hold dear.

​

The technical side of printmaking requires patience and practise, yet it is an art form which lends itself to experimentation; not only do I experiment with multiple printmaking techniques, I also produce large scale installations featuring print combined with stitch, alongside traditional limited edition prints.
