I came to watercolour painting the long way, as a year-round extension of the creative expression I had already found in gardening and the deep fascination that drew me to weekend botanizing. After taking part in Julianne Baker’s plein air garden watercolour workshop series in 2022, I continued a regular painting practice that took off as a passion. My artwork is a collection of images from my home garden in Warkworth, from beautiful natural areas nearby such as Red Cloud Cemetery, and from travels in England and other places with spectacular gardens.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I focus on the textures and structures of plant life, specific moments in a growing season, and the wood, metal and stone of special built places.
