My residency this year was in January, and the overwhelming feeling I had was of quiet contemplation whilst walking around the island and enjoying the magnificent skies!  My narrative always returns to the everyday beauty that is abundant on Scilly, captured as I go about my day.....a morning coffee, collecting flowers and eggs, a moment of peace in my otherwise hectic life. The winter days seemed far longer and I spent much of time sketching and reminiscing about Tresco in the different months of the year that I have been lucky enough to visit.  My work is a response to the energy I feel from the island both in the winter and summer. I hope that you enjoy the show and your stay.
