I have been painting professionally for
a few years now and mostly specialise in encaustic wax
and watercolours. I also run very popular workshops in
encaustic wax.
I am extremely passionate about encaustic wax. It is such
a wonderful medium to use. It is quick and easy to
manipulate and detailed pictures such as large
traditional style landscapes, fantasies and modern
abstracts can be achieved through melting the coloured
wax with a hot iron, stylus and/or hotplate. The
techniques are very easy to learn and I still find it
quite fascinating to see a picture emerge from such
material.
My watercolour flowers are very popular and are a joy to
produce with subjects always being available to paint. I
often produce prints and cards from my originals which
are also popular. I work in a very traditional style, a
sort of loose botanical style to show the detail of the
flowers. Most of my watercolours are worked wet into wet
which gives a wonderful light and tone to the petals and
leaves.
Keep and eye out for my workshops and also for shows or
exhibitions I will be attending!
