“Our relationship with water fascinates me. It is the root of all that we are. From birth, to human physical life. Protected in water in the womb. Life giving, to the plants, the animals, to us. An endless cycle from air, to land, to sea, to air once again, Invisible to the eye, but always constant. There’s something magical about using rainwater from the Jurassic Dorset Coastline in my work. The land here is filled with ancient fossils, millions of years old. Rainwater filters down through the rock, returning to the sky. |
Using rainwater in my painting’s, help capture the history of the Earth long forgotten, fossilised thoughts on paper
Working in this way allows for a deeper connection with the Earth, bringing the outdoors into your living space."

"I believe that everything is energy. All life on Earth holds spirit and through every action, there is a reaction. An endless exchange of constant flowing energy. When a river flows it carries its spirit along with it. Its essence invisible, but as an artist I feel that energy. When you step into a forest you are entering a network of conversation, both below and above ground. It may be unheard by human ears but it is there. A mountain speaks beneath the surface of the Earth, albeit silent to us. If I was to take that essence of a river, of the forest, of a mountain and hold it physically in a closed loop in my hands, I would be capturing consciousness. Our ancestry and roots are becoming more and more blurred everyday. |
I try to remember and translate a lost language of the Earth in my work. I am slowly unfolding this language each time I paint, and in turn I am rediscovering my own roots.
My process when painting is a response to emotions felt in direct relationship to the natural world. My paintings depict a harnessed energy of captured consciousness. A sacred moment recorded in a closed circle. I try to resurrect and summon the deepest connection to our Mother, The Earth, for myself and the viewer.
I paint the spirit of water you feel, but never see. I paint the quiet smoke, under the mountain. I paint Eyes of the Earth. I paint from my soul core, but most of all, I paint what I feel we are forgetting and must try to remember.
We must find ourselves, and redefine ourselves, in these lost places with our Mother The Earth, in mind."
