The following work relates to my interest in Still Life and the17th century Spanish 'Bodegones' artists that worked at raising the status of the everyday object, often choosing to paint food and kitchen objects. My work is currently focusing on looking at the overlooked, using Juan Sanchez Cotan's work 'Cabbage, Quince and Melon 'as a template.

Two of a series of 6 phone photos looking at the stages of growing up and teh confusion of adolescence and parenthood.

This image was an experimental shoot combining two ideas: Firstly the image of Ophelia drowned in the lake; secondly, the drowning of Miss Flynn in Laurie Lee's 'Cider with Rosie',where she is found by the milkman, the horses are so startled by the milkman's reaction that they rear, the milk cart is upturned and the milk from the churns runs into the village pond.

The aim of the photograph was to depict the housewife drowning in milk, surrounded by her kitchen paraphernalia.The picture was never completely resolved but will be revised in the future.

Intallation:

Photograph of a small Constable painting, abandoned in a small room during a refurbishment.

The image reflects how something precious can be taken for granted.
