Venue address: 2 Arundel Gate, Ford Road, Arundel BN18 9EX
Working as a mainly abstract realist painter, I explore personal narrative, experiences and impressions of my environment. I feel it is my role as an artist to interpret and reflect on my surroundings, not simply to reproduce an external image.
I have exhibited in London, Winchester, Arundel and other local venues for a number of years. I have travelled and studied in America and Europe. Solo exhibitions include ‘Generations and Journeys,’ ‘Memories, Dreams, Reflections,’ ‘Time, Myth and Memory.’ The latter was held in Arundel. Having completed a B.A. (hons), I undertook a Post Graduate teaching course. I completed a Masters degree at the University of Chichester and my written work for Transpersonal Arts module entitled ‘A Dance With My Shadow’ is published in ‘Performing the Dreams of Your Body’ by Jill Hayes, Archive Publishing, 2007.
Having been employed as a lecturer in further and higher education, I am now a tutor, working with individuals and small groups. I support my students to respond creatively, developing their individual style alongside their technical painting and drawing skills. I am delighted to return to Arundel as an exhibitor in the Art Trail.
