Art is a second career for both of us, and a journey we have undertaken together:

We gain most of our inspiration from the natural world, seeking the essence of our subjects in their different moods and exploring human responses to the immensity of nature.

We work mostly outdoors with locally-sourced natural materials. The process of making is a dialogue between artist and medium and feels like an act of co-creation.

Taking the time to open up the senses, embracing the experiences and emotions that arise in timeless moments of connection: gazing, touching, feeling and ultimately connecting with deeper meaning and purpose – this is at the centre of our art.

Susanna: ‘When I create, I am inspired by a mood or form that captures my attention. My work is informed by nature, but not defined by it.’

Phil: 'My work is about purity of form, working with the fundamental elements of story. Drawing inspiration from the archetypal images of the Tarot, these pieces deal with Idea in its most refined mode of expression.'
