I am an artist based in St Albans in England working in oil and pastels.

My working method is based on using drawings and images to convey atmosphere, light and place in work ranging from the figurative to the semi-abstract. While I have particular images in mind at the beginning, it is important to explore how the process of painting evolves with the inter-actions that develop between colour, texture and light values. This often involves the use of palette knives to scrape back, and re-apply paint and glazes and see what emerges. Recent work includes atmospheric landscapes, for example looking at the relationship between mountainous forms, sea and the land.

Over the last year I have been working with pastels and enjoying their vibrancy, versatility and delicacy. The brilliant Paula Rego described working in pastels "like painting with your fingers" which sums up their tactile nature.
