I am a 3rd year mature student at the University of Suffolk and I am interested in the process of creativity as a way to explore the self (whatever the self is!). I like Outsider / Strange / Bizarre Art and particularly like to use found and natural materials.
Good afternoon I’m considering signing up to an online gallery named Artplode but before I do I want to try and get some user feedback as it is a considerable £120 annual fee. Any experiences – good and bad would […]
So I feel I should update everyone as I haven’t written in a while. The main reason I haven’t written is that nothing’s happened, I’ve been so busy that I haven’t been able to make it to London to see […]
This year’s Frieze Art Fair features over 160 galleries, includes a new ‘The Nineties’ section, and continues until Sunday. Chris Sharratt reports.

Over the last year I have been exploring landscape art and investigating the various forms attributed to Landscape Art throughout the history of art. Throughout the Modernist, the Postmodernist and into the Contemporary Art era, landscape art has changed and […]
Opening day for the Somerset Open Studios and a brilliant day it was too. No sooner the time reached 11am, visitors began to arrive. I did not know what to expect. Lots of people arrived throughout the day, visiting all […]
Over the last couple of months I have been exploring ways of printing and making marks without carving the surface. Through only pressure, gravity and colour I have been producing these print paintings. Through memory of what I have seen […]
The Sea of Rock series of monotype print-paintings explore the area of West Beach that I walk along during low tide in Watchet. When I am walking along the beach I imagine those days past when Samuel Coleridge, the Father […]
