I am a printmaker and mixed-media artist. My work is inspired by both nature and culture, focused on themes of balance, loss and change, and our connections to each other and the natural world. I am particularly interested in the idea of balance in its many forms: physical; spiritual; cultural; juggling the demands of contemporary life; and navigating a path through a very complex world. My work is also influenced by the current crises around immigration, climate change, tolerance, equality, and justice. 

I am inspired by the beauty, resilience and changes that occur in the natural world, and most especially the paradox of permanence/impermanence. I am drawn to the organic shapes, patterns and colors in nature, particularly rocks, feathers, leaves and water. 

My passion is printmaking, as it’s a whole brain process, both technical and creative, as well as physical. I love the unpredictability, the serendipity, the limitless possibilities and the journey. The appeal for me is that it can be both spontaneous and highly technical. There is a ‘letting go’ in the process once the ink leaves the plate and transfers to the paper as it goes through the press. Both paper and I share the journey.
