I am artist who loves to draw and paint. If I should describe my practice then I would say my work is in a sense autobiographical. Working intuitively, my art responds to events happening around me - my immediate environments and my position within them.
I am drawn to what I see as beautiful - the perfectly composed - I adore simplicity which often plays a part within my vision. I like to experiment with media - different paint materials ,collage and making sculptures occasionally.
I am studio based - living in Hove on the south coast of England.
A selection of my paintings from the 2021 series is currently on view in 'Well Well Well' at The Leyden Gallery, Aldgate House, 33 Aldgate High Street, London - please contact The Leyden gallery for opening times 0207 2474456
