Coast to Coast | November | North Yorkshire Artist & Photographer
Twelve months ago I had this idea, after a year of challenge, to bring together different perspectives around the globe with a uniting theme of the sea. Starting on 31st December 2020 after what can only be described as a challenging year for everyone, the sea and the horizon was a beacon of hope as we inched into 2021. 2021 by no means brought the return to normal that we’d hoped for and we’re ending the year with yet another new variant on the horizon.

Coast to Coast | October | North Yorkshire photographic artist
As my project on The Strandline has evolved, I’ve been doing a lot of research into other artists and creatives who are drawn to the sea but also to wild places as well as looking at how our connection to place is informed by our memories and associations with a place. These layers all overlap to give us a unique perspective on places that mean something to us.

Coast to Coast |September | North Yorkshire Artist
September has been a funny old month in which I’ve not picked up my camera much. The end of August was a flurry of activity preparing for my installation of my project The Strandline, exploring the metaphorical mark left by the sea, as part of Ryedale Open Studios. And then there was a hiatus while the children went back to school and re-settled in, and I took a break to get stuck into some further research.

Where to have family photos in North Yorkshire | Malton family photographer
Where are the best spots to have family photos done in North Yorkshire? That’s the question I’ve been asking myself lately. Ever since I moved to Malton in North Yorkshire at the beginning of summer I’ve been on the hunt for the most photogenic spots for family photography.

Coast to Coast | Sandsend & Dolphins! | North Yorkshire Photographer
After a flurry of activity getting some big assignments in for my Masters course I confess I’ve barely picked up a camera in August. My focus has been on my installation of my work in progress on the project The Strandline, which took place in my studio as part of the Ryedale Open Studios over the summer. You can read more about my installation at the open studios here.
But I couldn’t resist some phone pictures on a recent trip with my children to Sandsend near Whitby in North Yorkshire – which now I’ve moved north to Malton is just a stone’s throw away.

Ryedale Open Studios | North Yorkshire Artist
Thank you to everyone who attended my Open Studio as part of the Ryedale Open Studios in August. It was such a pleasure to meet so many people interested in my work and such a fantastic welcome to Malton and the creative community both locally here in Malton itself, in the wider Ryedale area and even as far as York.

Coast to coast | July | North Yorkshire photographer
I’ve probably been to the coast more times in the last six weeks since I moved to Malton than I have for the last six months. It’s so much more accessible; there’s so many fantastic beaches and coves to explore and swim in; and I’ve been spurred on my the impending assignment deadline for my Photography MA to show a work in progress portfolio on my project The Strandline.

Coast to Coast | June | Filey! | North Yorkshire photographic artist
At last the northerner moves back north (not quite all the way but to Yorkshire at least!).
After 20 years living in London, over a decade of them coming home to the same front door, it wasn’t easy to leave. London has given me a husband and a family; the most amazing and deep friendships; travels and an exciting career ‘In the Thick of It’; lots of gin and laughter; and very many hair styles and colours.

Coast to coast | May | Folkestone | Photographic Artist
May saw our first family camper van trip of the year! We normally head out around February but of course this year we were in lockdown and it hasn’t been possible to go to campsites until recently. So we packed ourselves off and of course we headed to the sea! This may be our last trip to the sea in the southern part of the UK for a while as the move north nears closer…
