    My pieces are born out of the necessity to understand the inner self and to express emotions beyond words. Each work delves into the macabre and the sinister, juxtaposed against the beauty of nature. Although monstrous and dreamlike, the vivid colours and serene atmosphere bring an uncanny spiritual identity to each piece. Acrylic and oil pastel on canvas with 3D texture

    I am a graduate professional artist with BA Fine Art First Class Honours 2006. I'm inspired by the landscape and create work that abstracts what I see and experience. Often working en plein air I create dynamic & colourful compositions. I'm inspired by abstract expressionism with rapid expressive mark making & striking colours of Fauvism. I have a strong exhibition catalogue over 20 shows in 2025.

    My practice explores landscape as a contemporary and evolving discipline, rooted in the traditions of academic art yet driven by personal experience and emotional investigation. I approach the landscape not simply as a subject to be represented, but as a living space of memory, movement, and transformation

    I am by definition an abstract artist who mainly specialises in painting. I use acrylic paint and mixed media to create my artworks, typically on large abandoned photographs, paper or canvas. The general theme behind my work is rooted in environmental issues and explores the contrasts between a natural existence and a synthetic environment that many of us find ourselves living in.
