I am a British artist living and working in the UK. I exhibit both nationally and internationally.
My work deals with the fragments of life seen at close range - the portrayal of the elusive touch or feeling; the detail and minutiae of life; introspection.
Observing the world at close range and focusing inward has always been the main element of my work, my point of focus being the human figure and face. I believe that there is an innate response to the mimetic and the re-presenting of our own image, it is something we are fascinated by and conditioned to respond to. Painting takes this into another realm with the artist controling each element of the re-presentation.
Large and small scale oil paintings form the body of my work, also graphite drawings.
