My work is about drawing from my head. I sometimes use just pencil to make detailed drawings on paper. I like to use colour and shapes in my paintings.

I make collages, drawings and paintings. I start by cutting pictures from newspapers and taking photographs of people. I use the photocopier to change the sizes. I paint around the collage with acrylic paint.

In the studio I develop work, I experience the artwork that other people do and I put my artwork on the wall to look at the artwork.

I draw people and their faces. I like when I use graphite and pencil and use the rubber to where I do dark shading around the eyes, nose, mouth, cheeks and hair. One of my drawings is called ‘The door opened and the light shone onto her’.

Stones are the subject for my work. I used them to get ideas. What I like about rocks is the feel of them, smooth and hard, the cracks of the stones, how they pattern out. I feel the stones because I can decide what materials to use to draw with.

The atmosphere in the studio is very good we like to have a laugh but at the same time we all would like to achieve that at the end of the day that we are very hard working artists.
