I am a Contemporary Impressionist Painter and Sculptor. I Sculpt in Clay which is then Cast using the Lost Wax process in Bronze or Aluminium. I Paint with Oils using knives, cloths and my hands on board or panel. I Draw with Charcoal after creating various surfaces to make full use of the remarkable flexibility of the medium.
I am very interested in Medieval Women hence my series of sculptures celebrating the highly educated and powerful Eleanor of Aquitaine and my sculpture 'A Woman in Motion' (commissioned by The Minster and the Diocese of Norwich for permanent installation in The Minster in King's Lynn) celebrates Margery Kempe, a Christian Mystic, intrepid Pilgrim and Author of the first Autobiography in the English Language. AP#2 in the Limited Edition of 12 plus 2 Artist's Proofs is in the Permanent Art Collection in Lambeth Palace and is displayed at the entrance to the Archbishop’s Chapel. I'm the first female artist to have a sculpture inside Lambeth Palace, (building started in 1193!) and it’s a great honour to have a piece of my work in a Collection that includes works by Holbein, van Dyck, Sargent et al.
I am self-taught and work from my Studio near King's Lynn, Norfolk and am married to photographer Michael Waller-Bridge FRAS.
