I make art. I paint, I draw, I make music. I love it. I aim to capture the feeling from a point in time in my pieces. I'm interested in combining the background with the foreground to create an overall image.
I am a self taught painter bit did do a 3 year printmaking degree as I didn't have the confidence to join the painting degree class as I'd only used poster paint until that point. I'm glad that I didn't get taught to paint in a specific way though as it has allowed me to explore many methods of painting in my own way, of which, I have taken the bits I liked and encouraged them into what I feel is now a style of my own. Please take the time to enjoy looking at my works. These I are all for sale. My latest works however have all been sold so I am open to offers of commissions of portraits, landscapes and scenes of human interaction (family get together a etc) So, I hope you enjoy my work. I certainly liked making it apart from those times you want to stab your brush through the canvas!
