About the Artist
July 2024
1999-2002 BA (Hons) Degree Illustration.
Brighton University.
1997-1999 Art College. BCT Brighton. BTEC-NDD (National Diploma in Design)
My paintings and developed drawings hover between figuration and abstraction, I enjoy the freedom of expression and the unique personal interpretation that evolves during their construction.
My latest body of work consists of 10 colourful & expressive paintings that are directly inspired by my drawings.
Currently making new bodies of work for Open Competitions and planning exhibitions.
Available for gallery representation.
Please see Instagram for regular updates.
