Drawing and photography are central to my practice. Both make pressing - if sometimes fictitious - claims to the capture of lost moments.

Autumnal forest floor

The forest floor is full of mossy smelling tangles of leaves through which vividly coloured Baroque-curly mushrooms amazingly erupt.

Death underfoot

My daily walk with Kato takes me through the most beautiful field - big sky, rolling landscape - through which a Roman road cuts. The sheep's head is still there, and much of the flesh has now been whittled away.
