I make art that holds space for calm and contemplation.
Connecting us with ourselves, each other and the world.

Art makes us human.
In a world of AI and distraction, let's choose to stay human.
Slow down. Value beauty. Be kind. Care for the planet.
The systems we live in dehumanise us and make us into products.
Be radical. Refuse.
Let creativity and art be our weapons.

I have really been enjoying looking at ink in close-up today.
It really is a wonderful material.
Tomorrow I will go to @thecourthousebushmills and mostly work with acrylics on a gelli plate…….

I’ve been playing with ink abstracts in my sketchbook again.
These are pure black ink, or diluted black on watercolour paper.
I have done a lot of these and feel ready to commit to trying them on higher quality (therefore more expensive) paper.

Today I’ve been exploring making abstracts with black ink.
I like how these turned out. The first two are large (42cm x 60cm), the second two on handmade paper in my sketchbook.
