My residency at Brisons Veor has given me a longed for opportunity to focus on my work without interruptions having been a full time art teacher for twenty years. The house is a perfect artists’ retreat and promotes a desire to create. I first visited Priests Cove over fifteen years ago while staying in St Ives, the landscape had a profound effect upon me and my work and the environment continues to be central to my practice. The opportunity to spend a protracted period of time working in this very special place has enabled my work to progress to the next level.
