ARTIST’S STATEMENT FOR INSPIRED BY BECKER ART SOCIETY

I am inspired by Becker’s drawing style, his immediacy of mark making, subtly of line, his sense of place and knowledge of the people that worked the land in twentieth century rural Suffolk.

My work relates to his sense of place and time. I am inspired by the Suffolk landscape and use expressive mark making techniques and colour as I move through today’s twenty first century landscape and hear the echoes from the past.
