I have finished another year of Art College with Art Academy East. Honestly, it is such a fantastic feeling, it’s been a long and significant year of learning, culminating in a final project to create a body of work that is shown to our family and friends as an exhibition.
We were asked to investigate “a sense of place” For me I resolved this as the Norfolk Coastline, and specifically, Cromer. It’s a place that means a lot to me, for many reasons, and my hope is that the collection represents my feelings in painted form.
Here I shall show the completed pieces.
I created 3 collections of work, and I am proud of the results.

I hope you enjoy these paintings.
I, along with my peers are having a student work exhibition on 1st July at the college, invited guests will be able to view all our work and how we individually resolved “a sense of place”.
I can’t wait to showcase my work to family and friends, this is possibly the proudest I have been so far of all my achievements.
