I’m Kathryn, I live in Canterbury with two chinchillas and a sausage dog.

I like the words of Murakami, Borges and Auster, the films of Gondry, Bunuel and Tati and the soundtrack from the Junglebook.
Larry David makes me laugh and the sultan’s elephant was nearly the most amazing thing i ever saw.

Also I like: alchemy, Jung, lucid dreams, Blake, Bosch and Ballard, Leonora Carrington, Italo Calvino and Eckhart Tolle, anyone who really explores their world.

All of my work starts life as a photograph, then whilst some of them stay true to their photography roots, others evolve into different forms of art based on the originals. I work both commercially for local businesses and creating art pieces.

A portrait should be as much about the person as it is a likeness. I incorporate elements of their life and personality into the composition to place them truly as they are, at that time. What you see is the truth.
My murals on the other hand are imaginary – even a realistic Trompe L’Oeil is illusion.

I have been working with wood for over 30 years now, and have had many personal highlights in this time. I was awarded a “Gold Medal at the British National Wood Worker Show”. I was also awarded a “Gold and two Bronze Medals” from the “Bexley & District Craft Guild”.

I was commissioned by Geoffrey Marsh MBE from the “British Institute of Plumbing & Heating Engineers” to carve their coat of arms on an antique Boxwood Dresser that is to be used as a Talking Stick in their boardroom; The original idea of the Talking Stick was by the American Red Indians. The person holding the Stick cannot be interrupted during a meeting and would be past on to the next person to talk (you can see the finished piece in my gallery).

The artist Graham Clark has one of my Horse Brass patterns featuring his signature logo (you can see this piece in my gallery).

Welcome to my woodcarving art site. Please feel free to brows my sight. My woodcarvings are mainly commissioned to client specifications, I also have a gallery of pieces available for sale.

Inspiration comes from many sources including Lucien Freud, Francis Bacon, Spike Milligan, Tim Burton, Cindy Sherman, fashion magazines and the Pre-Raphaelites. The work covers a range of subjects based upon everyday life and mythology.

I am obsessed with faces.
They show a person’s life, and can look different on a daily basis, a perfect canvas to convey different sides of your character. But more than this my fascination is with the colouration and fragility of skin and within my portraits I strive to bring these issues across. My concern is more with the flesh then the actual likeness.

Many of the images are severely cropped and large in scale to enhance the confrontation. The faces are exposed to close scrutiny, emphasising the fragility of the face and person. As we gaze intently at them a combination of senses unfold and question. This questioning is the most important factor of the work, from the everyday issues of beauty being skin deep to a beautiful woman becoming a freakishly bizarre creature.

Drawing and mark making play a significant role, repetition of marks, layering on different colours. This can be a violent process, pressing paint through fabric, manic stitching – quick actions due to a short time-scale. These ‘routines’ and combinations of materials trace my thoughts and fixations of the paint/skin and lead to an ongoing exploration of abstraction.
