Artist's Statement
Growing up in the Warwickshire countryside in England and then being educated at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, gave me a deep appreciation for nature, literature, theater, and visual storytelling. After leading the Theater program and teaching in the English Literature department at Wellington College in the UK. I relocated to the United States to begin a new chapter—first as a teacher and theater director, and now as a full-time visual artist.
Working in collage, I combine narrative instinct with visual play, transforming familiar images into fresh, thought-provoking compositions that reflect a lifelong engagement with creativity, performance, and perspective.
