British wildlife illustrated on locally sourced reclaimed wooden boards each has been sanded to enhance its natural characteristics before paint is applied. This process gives each piece originality and a uniqueness all of its own. Whilst painting, each work has different layers of acrylic paints applied to create shades and tones and to develop depth within the image. To complete the final layers of the image, metallics and iridescence are added to give the illusion of life that changes with the light. I also develop sketches and watercolours to make digital images that can be used on items such as prints, tea towels, chopping boards and cards all of which are available.
