I'm an enthusiastic hiker and alot of my work involves me walking with my sketchbook and creating images in the moment, where ever that may be. 

I later take these sketches and start cutting the image into a piece of lino in my little studio. 

The most exciting aspect about working in relief printmaking is that I never know how the piece will look until I peel back the page to reveal work. After all these years the sense of anticipation before ‘the reveal’ is what it is all about.
