Landscape Paintings  - Cornwall 

These paintings explore what it feels like to inhabit a landscape. Flashes of colour emerge, wildflowers appearing like jewels, or a distant flock of lapwings lifting from an estuary. At times, the work recalls standing beneath a murmuration of starlings, their movement set against the constant presence of the human landscape, wind turbines, power lines, roads navigated daily by wildlife.

​

Rather than describing a specific place, I work with horizon lines, gesture and layered marks to hold moments of attention within a more expansive, semi-abstract space. The paintings move between observation and memory, balancing what is seen with what is sensed.

​

Using restricted, seasonal palettes and layered processes, my practice responds to both inner and outer landscapes, recording presence as something experienced, remembered and felt.
