The Faun Drawing

I am a storyteller that is always looking for great characters with amazing stories. I am drawn particularly to the natural world and the uneasy balance between humans and animals. I have used a variety of mediums to explore these characters and stories which means I am regularly shifting between the literal and the figurative in both writing and visual arts. My art and photography are about light and environment and the people and animals trying to make their way in that environment. I spend a lot of time around children and seek to capture the fantasy children see in the everyday. I love to hear people's stories and points of view and I try to let what I hear drive my lens when I photograph people. My drawings and paintings are particularly focused on animals and their meaning and relationships to humans.
