    I’m a British artist working across mixed media—acrylic, ink, print, stitch, and scraps—drawn to the messy, intuitive business of making. My work lives at the intersection of wildness and control, personal story and public space, nature and notebook. It’s rooted in sketchbooks, foraging walks, and annotated thought—where ideas are allowed to spill, split, and grow teeth.
