Denise graduated from City & Guilds in the summer of 2003 with a Postgraduate Diploma in Painting. She was immediately accepted to exhibit at Fresh Art where she sold virtually her entire collection. Since Fresh Art Denise has exhibited with us at the London Art Fair, 2004 and in a group show at the Woolff Gallery, London.

Denise explains, 'The work starts as a primordial, untamed, seemingly 'self-aware' mass that aims to grow of its own accord, ultimately breeding new pieces. As this process seeks to happen, my own desire for shaping and control takes over and I force form and structure onto the work. This control is manifested as an introduction of marks, lines and 'man-made' geometric shapes that prevent the unabated expansion of the organic, and hence forces it to change direction and flow.'
