 I did a BA Honours degree in Visual Studies at Norwich School of Art and Design in 2003 and went on to do a Masters in Sequential Illustration at Brighton University a couple of years later. I now live in London and work both as a freelance museum/gallery educator and as an artist illustrator.
I love making things and creating stories, real or imagined, funny and sad. Either way, they must mean something. The Imperial War Museum hold a collection of illustrations I made titled, 'War' and they were exhibited in 2008 at IWM London. I exhibit regularly and the subject matter ranges from conflict to flea circuses and everything in between. I did the illustrations for a children's book titled, 'The Cat Sat on the Mat', in 2006 and am currently writing and illustrating two more.
I create my work through using a variety of techniques and materials- inks, rotary pens, watercolour, printmaking (monoprinting, linoprinting and etching), embroidery. The actual artwork ranges from being delicate vignettes to a huge, intense drawings on paper or embroidered on silk. My desire is for my pictures to convey a sense of mystery and quiet surprise. I like to play with the scale within my work and to create a sense of the unusual.
