Graduated from Portsmouth University 1999 BA (hons) in Art Design and Media

I studied Art, design and Media at Portsmouth University and graduated in 1999.

I create artwork for modern interiors such as restaurants, bars, clubs, shops, homes and all contemperary spaces including galleries and exhibitions.

Statement

My work sings in the language of modern culture, gazes into the mirror of our vibrant modern media and reflects a striking visage.

I cast portraits as characters performing my ideas as scripts with the canvas as a stage and the gallery as a theatre. I adorn my figures with lucid colour with dress to sharply contrast. I model my subjects to strive for impact in lead roles as large bold pieces.

My designs flower from a fascination of powerful visual imagery - sleek advertising from brochures and catalogues can be a strong source of vivid messages, fashion magazines and music videos energise my invention.

Expressive sketches, graffiti style stencil work alongside graphic design and stylised text are techniques I use for desired effect. I present to the viewer a positive modern art experience which walks the runway and speaks the language of modern society's visual culture.
