ARTIST’S STATEMENT
‘And not a tankard in sight’
As a traditionally trained Silversmith, studying at Buckinghamshire University, I could describe being introduced to Pewter during my second year as love at first hammer. So malleable! So versatile! So misunderstood!
I often take inspiration from everyday landscapes which involve contrast in materials, scaffolding around a modern building, tangled fishing nets on the harbour, cracked pottery, rusty nails in a fencepost. My own likes also feed into my work such as my condiment spoons which answered a frustration of not inheriting my Mothers chutney making genes
