Not much of a Biography as i am Self taught Photographer and Artist , though i did spend a magical year and a half at Norwich City college doing a foundation course in Art and Design sadly due to health issues i was unable to complete it.
My love of photography started as a teenager and encouraged by my father who was an avid photographer. However, since moving to Norfolk with my now grown-up children i have become really aware of everything around me. I see nature everywhere i look and my head is buzzing with ideas for shots, places to capture moments and the beauty of the Norfolk countryside. My camera is an extra limb, without it i feel lost.
July 2010:- I have a desire to explore the human figure as part of nature, this idea has had scenarios rolling about in my head for quite sometime but as yet no foundations have been laid. They are ideas waiting in the wings that i hope to explore later in the year.
This year i completed my work `Fractions of Rem' but a yet haven't be able to afford gallery fees to exhibit but i will let you know if i do .
Did you like my skateboard? Well several people did on some of my other websites and i have been commissioned to create other work of the same type. The latest news on this new area of my work is that i am selling original and totally unique canvases which will be exhibited at the Norwich Mall Shopping Centre (level 2) from the 9th August 2010 until 15th of August 2010. Come along and say hi and buy a handpainted/drawn original artwork.
I have worked as a textile artist for many years, working primarily with wool, silk and other natural fibres be it weaving, felting, silk paper making ,needle felting and lately knitting.
2009:- I like to paint in a mixture of different mediums, at present i am experimenting with oils but i am also rather fond of air brushing and spray paint. . At the moment i am working on a series of Acrylic paintings called `Fractions of R.E.M' they are about my dreams. I dream in colour and these are images reflect my dreams. Some are metaphors of my life, either in reality or my imagination.
I had a piece of work in the Mall galleries in London last year which was enormous fun and i am entering this year as well.
There are so many fantastic artists out there, that at times i feel as if i am swimming against the tide, it would be great if in 2010 i found someone who would like to represent one area of my art. Check out my shoes and T-shirts on Zazzle or go and find me on Saatchi Online, where i have some of my black and white photographs. See some of my work on http//britishwomenartists.com .
