I was honoured to be featured in Lincolnshire Life, where I had the opportunity to share more about my work as an equine artist and researcher based here in the Lincolnshire Wolds, near Market Rasen.
My practice is rooted in a lifelong fascination with horses, their movement, anatomy, and individuality. Through my artwork, I aim to capture not just how horses look, but how they feel and express themselves. Working across a range of mediums including charcoal, oil paint, and traditional techniques such as silverpoint, I focus on careful observation from life to bring authenticity and depth to each piece.
Alongside my artistic work, my academic background plays a significant role in shaping what I create. My research explores how horses perceive the world, particularly their vision, and how a better understanding of this can improve both human interaction and equine welfare. This connection between art and science is central to everything I do.
Teaching is also an important part of my practice. I run workshops and masterclasses to help others develop their skills and deepen their appreciation for equine subjects, whether they are experienced artists or just beginning their journey.
Being featured in Lincolnshire Life was a wonderful opportunity to reflect on this journey bringing together art, science, and a deep respect for horses and to share it with a wider audience.
