The painting depicts an enticing view of a surf beach at the end of a tree lined boardwalk. It's a beautiful day with only a few white clouds in the sky and the surf is pumping in the distance. Three white cockatoos in the trees and some little white fragrant frangipani flowers bloom at the edge of boardwalk add to the surf scene atmosphere. Painted on canvas using sketches created when I visited this beautiful coastal place whilst travelling in Australia, I have tried to capture the sounds, smells, ambient light and atmosphere of the beach lifestyle there. I remembered it as a perfect day with the tropical cockatoo birds noisily squawking in the boardwalk trees in the hot summer sun. The trees formed an arch over the view at the end of the boardwalk and I have attempted to recapture the relaxing feeling of being on holiday and the excitement of visiting new places. I hope viewers will be enticed by the view which is intended to conjure up curiosity drawing the viewer in with a sense of discovery. The boardwalk is typical of Australian surf beach entrances so I hope it will appeal to those who love and enjoy the surf lifestyle, like me and my family.

I work in a contemporary way using figurative, impressionistic, expressionist and conceptual styles to create my unique artworks. They are a combination of both paintings and sculpture and sometimes mixed media . There are elements of imaginative surrealism combined with real life experiences within them. I often utilize found objects such as reclaimed board from the coast to paint on that bear the patina scars of the sea's ebb and tide. As a multi-disciplined artist, I use a variety of mediums and media to make paintings and sculptural artworks. I like to paint in watercolour, synthetic polymer (acrylic) or oil on paper, canvas or board. I also create sculptures using natural or found objects. I live by the sea in South Wales and my work reflects the light and ambience there as well as referencing the UK coastline. Through exploring the beautiful Welsh coastline, the sea has become my central theme and inspiration for my paintings with its eternal ebb and flow as a constant fascination for me. Travel and visiting different places also inspires me and acts as a starting point for a lot of my work. I travel when I can, especially to surf coasts in Australia, where I document my experiences in my sketchbooks which are then used as reference for work in my studio at home. I studied Fine Art under British Artists Maggi Hamblin, David Hepher, Roger Ackling and Annabel Nicolson, all of which whose work I admire greatly. My other influences are Frida Kahlo, David Hockney, and Pierre Bonnard whose paintings tell a story about people and places. I also love the work of Leonardo Da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli, Gwen John, Andy Goldsworthy, Chris Drury as well as many others to numerous to mention! Each year, I enter the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and my painting "A Polar Bear's Survival Plea" was exhibited in the 2022 show.
