These paintings are my latest abstract exploration of British woodlands, inspired by the meandering streams that flow through them in autumn. My creative journey began with immersive experiences, walking through forests and kayaking along rivers and canals, capturing the essence of these moments through photographs, videos, and notes.

To translate these experiences into art, I gathered my images, envisioning them in abstract form. Experimenting with shapes, colours, and compositions, I sought to evoke the warmth and vibrancy of Britain’s autumnal woodlands and streams. I’m especially captivated by the joyful hues of fallen leaves drifting on the water, the gentle streams weaving through twigs and roots, and the shimmering reflections that hide another world beneath the surface. The life within these waters fascinates me, darting fish, water insects, and flourishing plants at the edges and shallows. It’s a symphony of nature’s beauty, endlessly uplifting and brimming with joy.

This is just one experimental collection I’m eager to develop, but I currently lack the space to paint, store completed works, or to share them with audiences in person.
