Original artworks crafted from recycled materials presenting a thought-provoking commentary on the interplay between human activity and the natural environment, particularly along the picturesque coastline of the United Kingdom.
About me
I am a painter and mixed media artist with a background in art and photography education, having taught for over 14 years in the UK and internationally. I studied at Edinburgh College of Art, where I developed a strong foundation in both traditional and contemporary practices. My work is deeply inspired by nature and wildlife, as well as a strong connection to the environment—something that continues to influence both my subject matter and approach.
Scotland and the wider UK remain a constant source of inspiration in my work, from their landscapes and wildlife to their ever-changing coastlines. Alongside my detailed animal pieces, I also create abstract seascapes incorporating collected sea plastics, reflecting both the beauty of the ocean and the environmental challenges it faces. Through layered textures, colour, and expressive mark-making, I explore the balance between realism and abstraction, aiming to evoke a sense of place and encourage a deeper connection with the natural world.
