About me

I am a fine artist based in the UK. I studied art at University of the Arts London graduating with a BA (Hons) in Painting in 2004. Since then I have worked as an artist, exhibiting and selling my work in the UK, Europe and North America.

Much of my work touches on issues relating to waste and the urban environment. I enjoy colour and try to use it to inject a heightened sense of life into the work. I specifically look for subjects that tell a story about the time or place in which I live. Taking my inspiration mainly from an ever growing collection of photographs of impermanent situations that I come across on a daily basis I use acrylic, oil, canvas, card board, paper and anything else I can get my hands on to produce my work.

I focus mainly on discarded or found objects which have an ability to appear both humorous and vulnerable when taken out of their normal environments and ejected into the outside world. They work as a rough survey of modern tastes and trends, representing the impact of mass consumption; they also work as a metaphor for homelessness and remind us of our impact on the world.
