Moving to Cornwall with my family over twenty years ago was a dream come true. It is a land of light and shade, secretive woodlands, flooded inlets and silver seas. It is ancient, full of stories and a constant source of joy.
'She is, if you will, a visual poet weaving images, symbols and archetypes into paintings that resonate in the subconscious and linger there like half-remembered dreams or the dark fairy stories with which she has such affiliation'
