I’m a Fine Artist based in Leeds, United Kingdom. My work specializes in dealing with complex thoughts, ideas, and facts within Nature. In particular those in which we seem almost to be overshadowed and overpowered by forces within nature. I have recently graduated from Leeds Arts University with a BA(HONS) in Fine Art and would like to discuss my latest ideas, material process, and exhibition endeavors.

My current interest in all things ‘forensic’ started in Atelier Hughes, an art restoration and conservation studio in Waterloo, Brussels where I assisted my sister, Melissa Hughes, working on the back of drawings and paintings to remove bits of dirt and tape. I remember sitting on the floor sifting through the contents of a vacuum cleaner bag with a pair of tweezers to find a really vital but tiny fragment of paper. This microscopic investigation of marks and materials combined with my experience of teaching in various institutions of Her Majesty, where I facilitate Open University and Distance Learning, inevitably informs my creative work.

In the spirit of the invitation to ‘all art practitioners at any stage in their career’ I’d like to introduce myself as a newcomer to producing art, I’d like to do this especially since all others I have seen from the FB page would appear to be quite established artists. I am somewhat mature in years (62) and come from a completely unrelated background: foreign language translation. I have no formal art training, but have long held an interest in what you might call ‘art in general’ in particular 2D and in which photography has been particularly dominant. I’d like to discuss coming to producing art with something of a simple ‘man in the street’ approach. How I decide on what I want to produce, how I excecute the work and what I end up thinking about it – and what others have said about it. I’d like to bring two or three pieces along as visual aids. I’m also a musician, a trombonist, and so am fairly well-accustomed to standing in front of people and making a noise. Don’t worry, I’ll leave the tbone at home.
