Dancing Days

Dancing rabbits on the beach inspired by Jack Vettriano

Rust

Rust, a photo by lowe2012 on Flickr.

The combination of colours and textures in the rusty gate post really interested me.

Layers

Layered strata of the cliff at Fraisthorpe. They are not high but the textures and colours are beautiful close up.

Grid

I saw this blocked grid and wanted to photograph it. I like the idea of the order of the cast grid contrasting with the natural grass and pieces of wood. 

Red Landscape ACEO print

I have just uploaded my first ACEO print to Etsy. I painted this little red landscape painting a while ago and just filed it. When I found it I thought it deserved an airing!

Flying rabbit

The idea of a cloth rabbit on a trapeze amused me. Her arms flapping as she flies through the air.

New work

Hi, after a break I have finally got around to making art again. With a background in textiles I love colour and pattern. I really like the 50's fabric prints that have been popular at the moment. I'm hoping to combine some of the graphic influences of style and colour in my paintings.

The first painting is influenced by some rabbits I saw in a shop window in York not much evidence of 50's pattern but hey you have to start somewhere.
