About The Artwork

As a portrait artist I wanted to extend my repertoire from 2D portraiture into 3D. I have a small personal collection of masks from various trips around the world and decided that mask would be an appropriate canvas for my new direction. Working on a 3D surface also had an influence on a change of style in my painting. Each mask is individually created using a mixture of materials and paint. The masks are created to give the impression of pieces that have been unearthed in an imaginary archaeological dig, aged, broken, torn by the earth that has kept them hidden for decades, even centuries.

Born in West Sussex, England but grew up and have spent most of his life in Northern Ireland. Qualified from the Art & Design College, Belfast, 1982, with a degree in Graphic Design, specialising in illustration and silk-screen printing. After working as a freelance illustrator, drawing tutor, and graphic designer he changed direction for a time to study theology. Since 2001 he has worked as a full-time professional artist. His main area of interest is portraiture and figurative work using various media. Commissioned works for portraits mostly involved working in a realistic style but in more recent times he has developed his art in several directions. He includes elements of symbolism and surrealism in his paintings and enjoys the freedom of often working from memory and imagination. His enjoyment and exploration in artmaking is such that he refuses to be tied down to any one particular style.
