“My work is inspired by the beauty of nature, music, spirit, stories, folklore, fairy tale, surrealism, the energy and magic that surrounds us and the interconnection of all living things.

I grew up and still live in the Wiltshire countryside, surrounded by chalk white horses on hills, standing stones, the song of blackbird, call of owl and bark of fox.

I often imagine the inside of my head being like a house. It has hundreds of rooms and endless doorways. Each one is stored with inspiration, characters, magic and ideas that one day will come out in the form of a painting, wooden creation or maybe even words. I hope to share as many as I can in this lifetime.”
