Prickly transforms the familiar form of a vase into something wild and almost otherworldly. Its irregular silhouette is covered in sharp, organic protrusions, while the Raku firing creates a richly textured surface with deep, shifting tones. Equal parts functional object and sculptural piece, Prickly brings an unexpected edge to the traditional idea of a decorative vase.

bloomscrolling in the veggie garden presents a vertical sequence of botanical photographs gathered from the vegetable garden. Arranged like a visual scroll, each image records a different flower or moment of bloom, creating a quiet rhythm of colour, texture, and form. Hand embroidery adds an organic thread through the photographic sequence, while the teak-wood hanging structure and beeswax finish give the work the character of a tactile, handmade object. The piece becomes both a botanical archive and an invitation to slow down and notice what is flowering around us.

Portrait of a Lady is a striking contemporary portrait defined by bold colour and stylised form. The figure’s luminous yellow-green complexion contrasts dramatically with deep blue hair and a vivid red garment, creating an arresting visual presence. Intricate, sculptural lines shape the hair and frame the face, giving the portrait an almost fantastical quality. Rather than pursuing conventional realism, the work uses colour, geometry, and expression to create a character that feels both familiar and otherworldly.

The microcosmos series explores the quiet intricacies of the natural world through close observation of seemingly ordinary plants and flowers. Each work combines a digital photograph with delicate hand embroidery, allowing the stitched lines to extend, echo, and reinterpret the organic forms within the photographic image. microcosmos I (little ironweed), microcosmos II (radish blossom), and microcosmos III (cat’s ear) draw attention to plants that are often overlooked, whether growing in a garden, amongst other vegetation, or considered weeds. Through the intimate scale of the photographs and the tactile quality of the embroidery, these small botanical encounters are transformed into imagined landscapes or miniature worlds. The series reflects on the beauty found in the unnoticed and ephemeral, inviting the viewer to pause and look closely at the complexity contained within even the most familiar forms of plant life.

Horned Lady depicts a fantastical female figure through an expressive combination of vivid colour, graphic line, and stylised form. The prominent horns and luminous facial features give the character a mythical presence, while the intense palette creates a sense of mystery and energy. Small in scale but visually commanding, the work feels like a glimpse into an imagined world populated by unconventional, dreamlike characters.

Whisper of the Stars presents a fantastical encounter between human-like figures and an otherworldly landscape. Set against an intensely coloured forest and rippling water, the elongated figures appear immersed in a quiet, mysterious exchange with their surroundings. Saturated reds, blues, oranges, and purples create a dreamlike atmosphere, while the expressive forms lend the work a sense of myth and timelessness. The painting invites the viewer into a world where nature, imagination, and the human figure exist in an ambiguous and poetic space.

Garden Bouquet imagines a garden where flowers, organic forms and strange little creatures exist in a world of their own. Rich earthy tones are contrasted with bursts of vivid pink, blue, yellow and red, creating a composition that feels whimsical and slightly surreal. Built through expressive gouache and colour pencil, the artwork celebrates the unruly beauty and unexpected forms found in nature.

Earth centres on a monumental, ancient-looking tree whose twisting branches extend across a vivid pink landscape. The tree becomes both a physical presence and a symbolic anchor, with small birds and leaves inhabiting its sprawling form. The incorporation of actual earth into the work introduces a tactile connection between material and subject, grounding the fantastical landscape in the physical world. Through its unusual colours and exaggerated organic forms, Earth evokes ideas of resilience, interconnectedness, and the enduring presence of nature.

In the Early Evening is a tall, atmospheric landscape that captures the transition between daylight and night. A glowing sun or moon hangs over a richly coloured landscape, while twisting vegetation and organic forms create a sense of depth and movement. The narrow vertical format gives the scene the quality of a distant, unfolding world—quiet, mysterious, and slightly surreal. Deep blues, greens, oranges, and reds heighten the feeling of an imagined landscape suspended between reality and dream.
