I am a self-taught artist who has always been driven to challenge myself with new techniques and applications.

The main inspiration for my paintings is taken from the world around me, which I translate into impressionistic paintings, using acrylics and watercolours.

My process when painting with acrylic paints involves applying layer upon layer of paint and sometimes adding collage. The layers are built up, rubbed down and scraped back to create a sense of mystery and discovery.

I also enjoy using watercolour. It's unpredictability allows the qualities of the pigments to become a fundamental part of the painting, rather than merely adding colour.
