I studied Fine Art Print at Norwich School of Art and Design. Having then lived In Brighton and Melbourne where I continue to exhibit with the 696 gallery,
i am now based in south east London. My paintings and drawings have been featured on Creep machine (U.S), Caarpaccio.(Spain), in Death Mook (Australia)
and currently feaatured in ' Ballad of' magazine (London) and as the cover art for French Novel "L’Ecole des dingues" by Cornelia Read.
My art has always been focused on creating female characters, the world arround them and the narrative this creates. It is a world full of precious objects, secrecy and hopefull magic. These oil paintings and mixed medium drawings trail along a between the line of real and imaginary.
My note book is vital to me, my scrapbook and camera of perhaps next importance. I begin a piece with sketching thoughts, after which go about collecting imagry the collaging these together to make the final piece and letting it develop along the way.
I am inspired by a mixed up jumble of things from eastern europe to south america, from Tom Waits to Amelie to a ornament found at a bootsale.
