''A range of botanical & landscape images combine photography with painting, drawing, Gold leaf & digital manipulation to create unique artworks. Many feature silhouettes, when plants, flowers, trees & buildings are viewed in this way, the distraction of full colour is removed, allowing an almost hidden beauty to be revealed. Trees look so fragile in their winter skeletal state, delicate lace patterns are created with tangled stems. The changing light of the landscape never fails to inspire me with its vast pallet of colours. Trying to capture that perfect moment in time before it changes & fades away.''
