Personal statement
I was born in West Sussex, in the south of the UK, and grew up in a creative and supportive family that encouraged my passion for art from an early age. This led me to pursue Fine Art and Art History at Northampton University, where I graduated with First-Class Honours Degree.
Subsequently, I studied in Brighton to enhance my skills in digital creativity, deepening my understanding of illustration and design. Today, I still blend these digital techniques with traditional fine art methods, much like David Hockney, as part of my creative process.
Later, I settled on the Isle of Wight, which shifted my artistic focus from landscapes to seascapes.
In June 2016, I entered, The Sky Arts - Landscape Artist of the Year. Made it Through as a WILD CARD to paint Scotney Castle, in Kent. Great experience!
Teaching, remains essential to me; I believe in sharing my skills and paying it forward to inspire the next generation of artists.
My studio is based in Cowes. Where I spend most of my time teaching, working on commissions or painting the latest series of works for Cowes Gallery, AAlondon Gallery, Seaview Fine Art Gallery and Artfinder online.’
