These series of wall pieces were designed as a main focal feature for a reception area in an NHS outpatients department connected to a residential mental health unit in South Wales
Combining images of my paintings with the photographs of photographer Tim Collier, we focused purely on work drawn from nature. The idea was to present a calming yet uplifting image with a degree of intricacy and interest to draw the eye across the image. 124 x 235cm, dibond panel.

Since 2019 and Covid I have been drawn as an artist to become active in participating in a series of Arts and Health and Wellbeing projects that can expand and develop my own interests in art and nature whilst at the same time adapt to work with other participants in an inclusive and calm space. This work has included working with art graduates onsite in a Nightingale hospital in Bridgend, making short nature based films for NHS staff and patents and also running workshops with patients with very different needs and challenges. For this I have frequently collaborated with creative writing facilitator Uschi Turoczy in devising ways to work with a series off different social groups and needs. The majority of these have been NHS based. Below is a collage piece made in collaboration with the nurses and doctors in Ysbyty Seren coming out of Covid and eventually sited permanently in the Royal Glamorgan Hospital.
