My work is primarily concerned with a quest to understand what it is to be human
through the act of painting; my paintings are the cathartic product of my
research into identity and often transpire through a process of studying philosophy, reflecting on life experiences and other tangents thrown up through attention to serendipity.
I apply a mixture of traditional techniques , researching the methods of The
Masters and experimenting with them in my own work.
My painting, as in ‘the act of’, celebrates and explores the visceral qualities
of paint and the technical possibilities of painting. The current toy paintings
were the product of my research into childhood as a discourse.
