ARTIST STATEMENT
My work explores the margins of landscape. I’ve always been interested in outskirts, edges and boundaries, and the marks we make on the land.
I work in oil paints on paper pasted onto board, drawing into the wet paint with pencil. This technique results in a deconstructed, sketch-like finished work; the smooth surface, fragility and fluidity of the mark making on paper echoing the temporary and peripheral nature of the places I paint.
