What kindled her heart as she lay with numbed limbs. And she thought of the words of the gipsy woman: 'There is a dark man who never lived in a house. He loves you. The other people are treading on your heart. They will tread on your heart till you think it is dead. But the dark man will blow the one spark up into fire again. Good fire, you will see what good fire'. D.H Lawrence- The Virgin and the Gipsy

Contemporary artist, mainly painting.

I am interested in the fragments of stories that can be found in historical images. I make paintings and assemble them to create new stories of mystery, romance and drama. Hinting at the old and more recent. The Nostalgic and romantic.

The Delicate risqué images of Victorian postcards, the circus, erotic and romantic text: Old photographs and stories, like these, allow our imaginations to tease at the edges of the scene and the long gone strangers depicted.

I am also currently exploring romantic and erotic texts which is forming the main theme of the work on this blog
