My paintings and
etchings explore the
often forgotten corners
of rural Sussex and
Kent. The discarded
machinery, hidden
buildings and the
debris of country life
are set amongst the
passing seasons and
the invasive forces of
nature.
My etching subjects are
similar to those used in my
paintings, but simplified to
suit the etching medium. It is
in my studio and workshop
that I produce the copper
plates, bathing them in acid
and printing the etchings on
my antique press.
For me, the attraction of an etching is its simple beauty, born from a
long and complicated process.
I am a British watercolour artist and etcher working from my studio in Robertsbridge, East Sussex.
