"
Inspired by the foreshore of the River Thames, this painting is a response to the beauty I find in the patterns and shapes revealed by the falling tide.
I have abstracted these forms and painted them in gold, transforming the humble mud into something precious. What might be overlooked or considered ordinary becomes, through my eyes, a landscape of extraordinary beauty.
The gold is both a literal and metaphorical gesture: an acknowledgement of the richness, history and quiet beauty I find in the river's ever-changing margins."
