Is it Summer yet?

2024

Each year, towards the end of the winter months, I find myself obsessively checking Accuweather to see what time the sun will rise and set for the day (and the week ahead), impatiently embracing each extra minute of daylight the warmer months bring me. 

This collection of artworks has been named after my once a year tradition of ‘chasing the light’. Bright blooms emerge from dark as night backgrounds, colourful patterns abound and my usual joyous foray into colour remains at play.

Further inspired by patterning, wallpaper and borders, I have pushed these elements further into my work to create elements of framing, background pattern and more....
