I am an Edinburgh based multi disciplinary artist working in a variety of mediums: oil on canvas, stone carving and clay sculpture and more recently, traditional hand cut photomontage. I exhibit regularly and am always touched that the viewers are genuinely moved by the work. To create something that reaches out to the human spirit is very rewarding.
The paintings and sculptures often portray the juxtaposition of a strong exterior presence but unmasking the soft vulnerability that lies beneath. Continually fascinated and inspired by the human form I draw upon feelings of isolation and alienation; people connecting or not connecting
“Quiet figures occupy barren landscapes;
still monuments that focus on unspoken communication,
the subtlety and complexity of a moment,
the simple gesture loaded with meaning”
