Artist Statement

The wind, the rain, the sun – each shapes the land in quiet, continual motion. I walk through these changing scenes, drawn to the shifts in light and mood, the subtle marks that time and weather leave behind. My practice begins here, in the stillness of observation – and unfolds through the layered techniques of printmaking.

I use a range of processes to translate what I see and feel. Monoprints capture the light. Collagraphs reveal the textures, while woodblock carving captures the contours of the landscape.

Each print is made by hand, inked and pressed in the studio – original, tactile, and shaped by many layers and multiple decisions. No two impressions are ever the same. In this way, the work mirrors the land itself.

I hope each piece invites the viewer to pause – to recognise a place, a season, a time of day – and to remember the quiet beauty of the land around us. My woodcuts, serve as gentle reminders: to notice, to value, and to help protect these landscapes, so their presence endures for generations to come.
