"Starry" Painting

I paint landscapes in acrylic on canvas, as well as oil, watercolour, ink and gouache. These are inspired mainly by woodlands and trees, on the Isle of Wight where I live, or places I've been, like the New Forest and the Lake District.

I also paint surrealist portraits in oil, acrylic and watercolour. I work stream of consciousness and sometimes use references for extra details but prefer mostly to rely on imagination.

I also combine landscapes and portraits, sometimes paint still life or animals. I like to follow my inspiration and let this lead where I go with my artwork.

I have had several years Fine Art study but am mainly self taught. I have been painting over 25 years and sold work online for nearly 15 years, with collectors all over the world. I've exhibited regularly for the past 20 years in my local area.

I completed a landscape commission for Berghaus in 2018, for their advertising campaign 'Time To Get Out' which was launched at the London Design Biennial, across all media.

I exhibited with Etsy UK in London 2012, as part of a limited number of artists selected for their OPEN exhibition.

I hope you like the work.

Thank you!
