Self-taught and hailing from the Midlands, after over a decade working in London, I moved to Newquay in 2017. Working part-time as an artist, I have work on display in Cornish galleries and shops, as well as online. I want people to surround themselves with things that make them smile!

About the Artist

Self-taught and hailing from the Midlands, after over a decade working in London, I moved to Newquay in 2017. Working part-time as an artist, I have work on display in Cornish galleries and shops, as well as online.

I look for new ways to represent the familiar; using life, memory and imagination to combine identifiable elements and creative mark-making to conjure up something new. Working in a mixed media of acrylic, oil and enamel, using brushes as well as less obvious tools in order to push the boundaries of applying paint.

I want people to surround themselves with things that make them smile, believing that involves tapping into memorable experiences as well as discovering something new. When I paint; nothing is completely observed and nothing is completely imagined. Between the two I aim to get the sense and the detail, and between the two, I look to introduce art into people’s everyday lives by creating a story out of a moment.
