Observing nature and learning about the world we live in through being immersed in its many wondrous forms has been a fascination since I can remember. Whilst growing up in and around rural Berkshire, my relationship with the natural world has always brought me continuous inspiration through its patterns of enchantment and magical charm. Did you know that a group of Goldfinches are called a ‘charm’?

Pebbles, Stones and Standing Stones are waymarkers for me in life and my creative practice, this became apparent in the colourful gardens I grew up in and family holidays to the Welsh and Cornish coasts. Growing plants, my own food from seed, beach combing, rock pooling, walking archaeological trails and climbing mountains all feed my creativity.
