About Me

---

I graduated from the Kent Institute of Art and Design with a Higher National Diploma in Illustration. From an illustrative beginning I went on to paint murals and produce art for commercial properties and private homes in the uk and overseas. In 2019 I achieved an honours degree in visual arts practice from the University of Brighton.

I use acrylic paint for most of my work, it allows me the freedom to apply the paint to the canvas in a build up of layers finishing with very thin glazes. I do like to use oil and watercolour if I am painting 'en plein air'.  I post 15 minute drawing practice sketches daily on instagram and I like to use a biro for this purpose.

Inspiration for my art can come from  nature, natural design and environmental concerns. I seek the beauty in nature and can find it in a living or dying flower.
