Dawn's work investigates still life subject matter often re-painting the same objects in order to learn how to visually describe them. She has an ongoing series of citrus fruits, wine bottles, and glasses, as well as taking inspiration from traveling. During her University days, she studied Fashion and Textile design, working with textiles gave her an understanding of colour and shape that she carries through to her painting work today. Her work can be found in private collections internationally and she regularly takes part in exhibitions throughout the UK.
