I am a London based artist, primarily a painter.
I have exhibited in and around London and Hertfordshire, including (but not limited to) Zeitgeist Arts Projects, Mall Galleries, Chrome Art (Tribe art fair), Hundred years Gallery, Centrespace and Royal Society of British Artists.
In 2013, was awarded as an RBA scholar by Royal society of British artists.
This was one of my first experiences exhibiting in a gallery, which forced me to take a more pro-active approach to painting and exhibiting. After that, I have gone on to exhibit regularly across London and with a growing list of shows around various parts of England.
Emotional/poetic pull prevails over any political or cultural references in my painting style. I like to think of it as visual music, building layers of melody, colour harmonics and space, along the way, I start to embed other themes.
Influences include Titian, Corrot, Edward Hopper and Dali, I studied fine art at University of Hertfordshire, and have carried on making art and exhibiting.
Currently, I am interested in using oil-based paints to create something that’s raw but compelling.
The alchemy and novelty of paint itself is something I greatly enjoy.
