These
pictures may be built up from a pastel or acyrilc backgound and
can incorporate many found items.
I
am constantly adding to my collection of organic and mineral objects
which I seek out on my sketching trips and visits to the shores
of north Cornwall.
My garden is a great source of materials such as leaves and bark,
many of which I grow, press and dry especially for the purpose,
whilst the lanes surrounding my home give me a never ending supply
of lichens and grasses.
I am always looking for new materials to inspire me and help bring
new ideas and change to my work.
