This piece was inspired by the journey my wife and I have been on together. The piece is a portrait of her; the eyes are the most detailed part of the piece, reflecting the experience of looking someone you love in the eye and the rest of the world melting into abstraction and emotion.

Read MoreGrowing up I struggled to express my emotions. I found it very difficult to be open with others, mainly because I wasn’t open with myself and didn’t recognise a lot of what was going on in my head.
Read MoreA couple of weeks ago I spent late nights in the studio frantically finishing, framing and packing work to be hung at The Truman Brewery for the 100th edition of The Other Art Fair.

This was an event I had been eager to show at for years.
Read MoreThe last 4 years have seen a lot of changes in my living situation, although many people have experienced a lot of turbulence since the pandemic.

Read MoreIn case you missed it, here are a few snaps from my recent pop-up exhibition at King’s Cross Canopy Market. It’s a special place for me because over the past 5 years it’s here I’ve shared, sold and developed my art and learnt to make a business from it. It was here that I first managed to make the dream of earning a living from my Art a reality.
