artist statement
My creative practice encompasses sculpture, drawing and printmaking as well as delivering creative sessions and workshops in collaboration with fellow artists and local community groups. Moving to Gellan Cottage in 2018 was a catalyst to expand my practice into creating larger scale, experimental, site-specific sculptures, exploring new materials and methodologies. That said recycled bronze is a medium to which I often return for small scale pieces as I find it inherently alluring. I feel the versatility and variety of form, texture, patina and lustre it provides adds character and ambiance to the work.
I graduated from Edinburgh University and College of Art with an MA in Fine Art in 1986 and have continued my practice since then and now work from my home studio at Gellan.
