Memories of distant travels and a response to experience much closer to home are my trigger for working and it is a fascination with colour which is the all encompassing ingredient.
The immediacy and physical nature of the printmaking process is a different experience to the more contemplative and solitary nature of the painting studio, but the two areas have become a significant overlapping combination.
During the process in both painting and printmaking, the work will begin to take its own path, and I’m always fascinated and pleased when on completion, the piece does indeed encapsulate the spirit of the initial response but in a form never envisaged.
