The artists that have influenced my latest work are; Patrice Murciano and Banksy. Along with my interest in pop art and the graphic style, I was inspired to create this piece due to my love of animals and rainbow! I love the crazy nature of monkeys. They are wild and funny. Therefore, I love to paint monkeys and capture the comedic personality that lies behind the eyes. During my time as an A'Level student (many years ago) I loved working with watercolour and acrylic but of late have discovered the challenge of working with spray paint too. I like my art to be unpolished and messy without actually being a mess. I want my viewers to connect with the monkey and enjoy the bright and uninterrupted love of bananas that goes without saying for monkeys.

United Kingdom
At school I took GCSE & A’Level Art, obtaining A grades for both. I studied mainly landscapes and towns scapes for my personal study but always had an interest in illustration and studied children’s illustrators too. After leaving school I chose to take the physical education route which was also a love of mine. After teaching PE in Secondary for 14 years and having 2 children of my own, I moved into primary teaching. I have often returned to my art as a way of relaxing and staying sane! However, due to lockdown I had more time to actually spend on my art and have taken on a whole different style. The influences of being “locked in” brought out my inner wild side and urge to break out. So I channeled my love of wild animals. My love of Banksy encouraged the graffiti angle in my art as I learnt to use spray paint and embrace its effects. I also have a keen interest in the style of the artist Patrice Murciano. I decided to try to recreate one of his pieces and that’s where it began. The piece still hangs in my house today. Back in my school days I always wanted to experiment with Pop Art so in Lockdown #3 I played around with this style too. Now it seems I have a definite “new” style and personally I love it and I hope other do too!
