Identity in black and white Painting

I am a young visual artist based in Leeds city centre. Heavily influenced by Abstract Expressionists like Rothko and Action Painters like Kline, my work explores organic movement and bold colour. I work mainly with acrylic paint and plywood, always on the ground and always barefoot. I experiment with oil on transparent acrylic when painting portraits, and also incorporating poetry, both original and a variety of other poets.
