She works from her
home in the Loud Valley on the fringes of the Forest of Bowland. The stunning
views are one of the inspirations for her mixed media work which is mainly
concerned with nature and landscape.
Alison has had an interest in creative
textiles for many years and studied at Lancaster and Preston Colleges, leading
to her particular interest in the use of colour and texture. She loves to
manipulate paint using a range of tools to build a wide variety of textural
effects and uses acrylics, inks, oil pastels and collage to give the viewer the
feeling of walking through the landscape.
Alison has exhibited at Accrington's Haworth
Gallery, Preston College, Lancaster Adult College and Cedar Farm, and has been
a member of Padiham Artists' Group for the last 12 months.
