Although trained as a sculptor, I am very happy working as a printmaker, and have had my printmaking career hugely facilitated by the accessibility of the West Yorkshire Print Workshop at the Eastthorpe Gallery in Mirfield, and the help and encouragement I have received there.

My sculptural interest in form and mass reasserted itself in turning my attention to the urban and industrial landscape. I have focussed in the past few years on the industrial landscapes of the North: here my feelings have been conditioned by disquiet about the effects of industry on the environment; the prints have been in part protest at the despoiling of the countryside, but they also reveal a fascination with industrial imagery and the awesome power of modern engineering.
