Practically Fluent Painting

"I'm about the narrative. I want my images to unfold… invite you to explore." ~ This is me... sitting in cafes watching the world go by, collating sketches from observation then taking that to the canvas and brewing a cocktail community around personal experiences. I’m preserving the observational element and fusing it with intuitive imagery and colour. Ultimately I'm indulging my fascination with human development, relationships and community evolution. ~ Background "My wife and I currently work as full time Artists in our studios in beautiful Port Douglas. I’ve spent most of my professional career working in television and print media as an editor, camera operator and graphic designer. Much of this has been based out of the U.K., working, travelling and experiencing art in Europe, the Middle East, the US and Latin America with my amazing wife, Cheryl, an insanely talented professional artist of more than 25 years. She opened my eyes to Antoni Tapes, Ben Nicholson, Ralph Steadman, Cy Twombly and John Olsen, the list is endless and the experiences are priceless. I can credit her for encouraging me to take my musings more seriously and stepping out of the shadows - have a look at her Saatchi profile Cheryl Harrison! So, I hope you enjoy my paintings. They are meticulously executed and are of a quality that will hold their own in any space, contact me if you have any questions."
