During lockdown I went for a run around my local park every morning. In this series of five reduction Japanese Woodcuts I wanted to show the beauty of small differences that became such a feature of my daily run. The beautiful sunshine cast exquisite patterns of dappled light through the trees of the park, every day slightly different.

Asemic Writing, 50.5 x 62 cm
This Mokuhanga print combines my obsessions with water, reflections and the Japanese language. Asemic writing refers to shapes that suggest writing forms. I was interested in incorporating the flow of Japanese calligraphy and the shadows of reeds into a traditional Japanese scroll format.
