During this exhibition in my studio I will have natural pigments in various forms on display, small artworks, cards and artist's books, made using my natural art materials.
Also, I am excited to be launching my new book, 'The Poetry of Pigment', an illustrated description of my pigment journey.
And as always, a warm welcome, a cuppa, homemade cakes and arty chat.
My nature inspired work is created with natural art materials made from plants and soil. This pigment journey - learning how to make my own inks, crayons, watercolour and gouache paints - has stretched over four years. In the process I have become more aware of my natural surrounds and it has made my work unique and authentic to place, since my palette is quite personal, made to my liking and gathered mostly from local sources.
