Welcome

Growing up in rural Ireland, surrounded by ancient bogland and shifting lakeland, I developed a lasting connection to natural landscapes - one that continues to inform my work. Now based in Devon, I draw inspiration from the rugged terrain of Dartmoor and the exposed edges of the South West coast, where weather, light and land exist in constant flux.

Water is a recurring presence in my paintings, reflecting both the environments I encounter and a deeper sense of movement and impermanence. Working in watercolour and mixed media, I become immersed in its fluid and unpredictable nature, allowing pigment to disperse and settle in ways that echo the behaviour of water itself. Through this process, I explore landscapes as thresholds - spaces that feel both familiar and uncertain, suspended between observation and memory, reality and imagination. My approach is intuitive and responsive, guided by the evolving surface rather than a fixed image.

I invite the viewer into a contemplative space, offering a moment of pause and a sense of belonging within the landscape.
