I am an artist based in rural Kent, the Garden of England, although my spiritual roots remain where I grew up in Peckham, south east London.
Working in oil paint, I study classical and contemporary oil painting and I enjoy looking at past painters throughout history to understand how they worked, and what I can bring into my own practice.
I use the word practice as it’s a constant learning curve, learning the techniques, learning by mistakes, and learning what it is I want to convey through my painting.
