I am a visual artist from Northern Ireland, now living and working in Highland Perthshire. My work is intrinsically linked to the natural world. Exploring the Scottish landscape provides continual inspiration, from noticing small changes on daily walks in a nearby woodland to exploring vast moorlands and valleys.

As a teacher, investigating the natural world with pupils adds another element to my understanding and artistic practice.

Printmaking and ceramics are the two processes that I am currently most engaged with. I create monoprints to capture a moment in time. Using various mark making tools, the monoprint process encourages experimentation and spontaneity, which I find helps to capture those memories of natural spaces. I create hand-built ceramic pieces that explore the textures and forms of the landscapes around me.
