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.
