Open Studios with Drawn to the Valley 2023

I am current exhibiting a selection of sea-inspired work at Ocean Studios cafe in Royal William Yard alongside 11 other local artists with a wide range of talents. Their diverse practice is reflected in the beautiful textiles, prints, paintings, jewellery and glass on display. The cafe is open 8.30am to 5pm weekdays and 10-5pm at the weekends, with great cakes and coffee, and you get to meet the artists!

I am showing art prints, watercolour paintings, ceramics, and 3D forms including Fossils of the Anthropocene (formed from plastic milk containers) and Dreamcatchers featuring beach-combed finds. I have a variety of framed work on display including 2 large relief prints on watercolour paper from a series featuring seaweeds and beach-combed plastic, made with a pigment from ground-up rock from the same beach.
