Detail view of fabric study
In this work I have taken ideas from many sources, Manets 'Olympia' reveals more than a provocative painting of flesh, it has interested me because of the fabric and its subtle tones and reflections. When observing the fabric I often think about works such as this.
'Pillow in pale pink' has taken most of February to complete and has been painted in several layers. It was painted from observation which required some drawing to establish the compositional dynamics. Throughout the process I tried to manage and control the vast amount of visual information and select only what I felt was relevant..
I hope one may feel some of the soft and subtle sensations of fabric illuminated within a dimly lit room.

I am a painter based in East London (Hackney). I have a small studio and work from arrangements of objects. I usually base my ideas around disposable items, fabric and plastic/containers. Referencing a number of artists from different periods I tend to work from direct observation and use a limited palette. I also sometimes employ and create carefully corriographed photographs and use a camera obscura for compositional purposes. Subjects are selected for their reduced colour. I am interested in ambiguous arrangements of objects and spatial illusion.
