Malvern Hills
My current work 'These Unseen Places' is inspired by walking and sketching along less trodden, quieter paths of the Malvern Hills. Hidden places that go unnoticed, formed through a landscape’s layered history, landforms and human memories.

 An integral part of my practice has been story mapping. Listening to memories has highlighted how personal and varied a sense of place can be, and how deeply people’s identities and different experiences are woven into the fabric of our landscapes. 

Lived Experience

 I am an emerging artist that has just completed  FA MA Prinkmaking at UWE Bristol. My practice is indebted to nature-loving, painter grandfather and influenced by my previous career as a landscape architect.
