MY JOURNEY

Art for me started as a way to help my mental health by focusing on the beauty in the world and immersing myself in the creation of something. In that way I see my art very much as an extension of myself, a collection things which I find beautiful but also a collection of moments in my mental health journey. On this journey I have learnt that most things in life are transient but the beauty of the natural world is one of life's constants. Although the natural world is dynamic and always changing it is consistent in that it never fails to take my breath away or leave me in wonder. My art forms a collection of those moments that evoke wonderment for me, whether that is an animal, a plant, a seascape or a landscape, the natural world is a gift I can never tire of.

I capture these moments using a range of different mediums although typically I will gravitate towards pen and ink drawings over time I have developed my own unique style and process in this medium.  

When I am not creating you will typically find me climbing a mountain, in a forest or by the sea. Living in Wales provides me with regular inspiration with amazing wildlife and scenery being plentiful, although nature is everywhere if we open our eyes. 

I hope you enjoy the art on these pages and join me on this journey :)
