I graduated in Fine Art from the University of Nottingham in 2012 and now produce expressive portraits and other paintings through which I explore varying degrees of abstraction.
I am a member of Opus Studio Group in the Oldknows Building in Nottingham and for some years I was a member In8 Art Group, exhibiting in local and regional galleries. Occasionally I attend short courses at The Slade School of Art, Central St Martins and The St Ives School of Painting to stimulate my explorations.
Working mainly in acrylic paint with collage, my influences can be varied. For some time, I have pursued concerns relating to the impact of climate change. More recently, trees and woodland, our crucial allies in combatting adverse climate change, have provided my starting points.

“Art really is something that you come back to many, many times
without being able to solve it and each time you go back to it you
discover something new.”
David Lee, art critic.
