Three days later, she joined the University's Scuba Diving Club, eventually moving to the Leamington & Warwick BSAC, gaining the Advanced Diver qualification, and becoming an instructor. "My involvement with the sea began at an early age, exploring Cardigan Bay with my family, on our boat, Trina. We had many close encounters with marine life, the most memorable being a pod of bottle nosed dolphins that came to play, leaping around the boat, pursuing us for quite some time. Another time we came across a dense mass of jellyfish - I marvelled at the gracefulness of these odd creatures, and a fascination with the sea never left me." Her studio in Cambridgeshire makes a good central base for all of the UKs coastlines. Diving in Scotland one weekend and Cornwall the next offers much of the inspiration for her work. "I love to just drift and observe the creatures in their natural environment. I am always impressed by the way creatures move in the water, they hold a natural energy and move gracefully in their element. Shoals of fish have a particular magic- moving as one, like an elegant dance."
