About this event

Contemporary, mixed media paintings, mono prints, drypoint, collage and film

The Cornish landscape, ﬂowers and my son are the three major inﬂuences in my art.

My son has profound autism and I have learned from him to observe the world from a different angle. My collages reﬂect our lives, slightly removed and at times uncomfortable. They enable me through colour and text to transcribe his world. A suggestion of a different life. Colour too is important to my work, not just to create feeling. I have synesthesia so colour to me takes on a different meaning. My landscapes are influenced by this and my connection to surroundings and the elements.

I cannot help but be inﬂuenced by the ﬂowers I grow. Giving new life to seedheads and pressed ﬂowers I create monoprints sometimes adding watercolour reﬂecting the changing seasons.
