Working on site with archaeologists and visitors, I created my own artwork and led Drawing and Printmaking workshops.
My ‘Refreshed’ art installation, designed for the excavation site, is inspired by the archaeology of Anglo Saxon & present day Cookham. It provided information about the dig and encouraged discussion around issues of archaeology and waste.
In September 2023, I presented a Solo show ‘Excavations and Impressions’. An exhibition of prints, drawings and 3D work to celebrate all the creative and archaeological achievements at Cookham Dig ‘23.
On this website, you can see my Sketches, Large Drawings & Tools of the Trade in The Gallery.
My Limited Edition Prints inspired by the dig are in The Print gallery.
A selection of the Limited Edition Prints are for sale in The Prints Shop.
