About
I define myself as a Contemporary Collage Artist. I use digital and analog processes working in a variety of media. The main thread running through all my images is thehuman relationship with nature and the natural world portrayed with a sense of mystery and wonder. My digital works are ethereal and dreamlike with an otherwordly aesthetic. I am particularly interested in flowers and plants as metaphors.I hope to transport my viewers to a world that is enchanting and mysterious. Soft, muted colours lend a dreamlike feel to my work. The most important part of my creative process is in making images that have a unique emotional resonance with my audience. My work has been commissioned and published globally in books, advertising, magazines, product design, games and puzzles, cards and stationary. I exhibit each year in international exhibitions, in 2023 showing my work in India, London, Norway and Germany.

Statement about AOAP submitted artwork
The analog collages are part of a Postcard Project of over 100 images that I started in 2021. All of the images are made from found papers and ephemera using traditional cut and paste. The surfaces have been sealed to protect from UV. Some of the works have elements of oil paint. The aim of this small works series is to create individual surreal stories, making every piece very different and unique.
You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists, and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do.
