About

Movement, colour and contrast all play a significant part in my experiments of making.  With an aim to creating Curious, Eerie and Playful characters.  That represent a mischievous reflection of the variety of human personalities and characters found in everyday life. 

These characters evolve and are inspired by a love of various genres of Art history from Portraits to Still Life and Natural history. From looking at characterful portraits, to unusual oddities of shapes in nature and inanimate objects.  What is most interesting and exciting is there ability to transform, to interact, to communicate, to come to life on the page!

”My work always has an element of being Fun, Sinister, Playful and Curious.” - Maria Pelton
