I am creating digital art images using a variety of apps to produce limited edition giclee prints. The edition run is 50 prints, usually in two sizes, printed on museum grade, acid free art paper, with lightfast inks. All prints have a certificate of authenticity signed by artist and printer.
Using some of the digital collages, and printing them on fabrics has enabled me to begin to create a range of items for the home, including tea-towels, cushion covers, make-up bags, and also scarves.

I love to paint, draw, make collâges and take photographs. There are so many images everywhere that I want to capture in some form. At the moment my main form of art is producing digital collâges using a laptop, and drawing for my daughter who loves watching people produce all sorts of images. She is non-verbal. I started using a computer to do fine art work because it was the main means of producing images when I was a graphic designer at the BBC. The other huge advantage is that one can carry a laptop everywhere and so I am not limited to being in a studio in order to create images.
I also work in watercolours and make prints from time to time.
