Hag Stones

West Sussex, 2022

The landscape of West Sussex is sculptural, dominated by the hills and valleys of the South Downs. Rivers and roads carve sharp lines in the land.  The stones I picked-up are distinctive in their variety of weird shapes. Their scarred and twisted forms turn into monumental landscapes as my drawing process develops – combining the micro and the macro. I attended a series of lino-print sessions, reminding me of my printmaking days at college. I started to experiment with the prints, and they soon became spectacular surfaces to draw on.
