I am a printmaker, and my etchings portray my experience of the landscape. I am fascinated by the different atmospheres that light creates in both our rural and urban environments. I use variation in light, form, texture and colour to magnify the moods and sensations of the places I experience. In July 2005 I moved temporarily to Copenhagen, Denmark, to work at the restricted access facilities at The National Workshops for Arts and Crafts, at the Gammel Dok Pakhus in Strandgade. www.arts-crafts.dk . Whilst living in Denmark, I discovered Fyns Grafiske Værksted in Odense, where I am continuing to develop my artwork and learn a great deal from the little artistic community there. So I now divide my time between printmaking workshops in Denmark and England: Fyns Grafiske Værksted in Odense; www.fynsgv.dk , and ‘Northern Print Studio’ in Newcastle; www.northernprint.org.uk . |
