Artist Statement I’ve been expressing myself artistically since I was knee high to a grass hopper.
I studied at Mander College Bedford doing a 2 year foundation art course where I was introduced to a number of media new to me such as Ceramics, Print and Photography. My material of choice is Pastel. In recent years I have been producing artwork, and animations in a 3d rendering program.
I am inspired by numerous sources such as books, music and films, mostly History, Science Fiction, Natural History and Biography. Personal experience is also a great source of inspiration. I love walking through the countryside where ones eyes can drink in the full range of natures colour and splendor.
My subject matter is wide and varied but there is usually a moody or dramatic theme, with an element of action as well.
