ARTIST STATEMENT
Painting & Printmaking, for me is a way to express a feeling that can’t be shown otherwise. My artwork takes a critical examination of elements of nature, this varies between wood and greenery and the various ways they can be made into art. In my work, I explore different qualities that can be formed from nature and through the use of bold colours, patterns and design these ideas come to life. My goal when creating artworks is to allow the viewer to question the material at hand and how natural inspiration can form paintings and prints.
