About
Coming from a background in photography and model-making my artistic journey has been shaped by an unconventional, hands-on approach. Photography taught me the importance of composition and contrast, while model-making instilled patience and an appreciation for materials. These experiences influence my painting, where I use layering, color relationships, and gestural marks to create depth and movement.
Colour is a central element in my work. I use mainly bold palettes and unexpected contrasts to generate energy and tension within each piece. Acrylics, collage, cold wax, oil paints and mixed media allow me to build textured surfaces, where previous marks remain visible beneath new layers, creating a sense of history.
All of the technical articles included here derive information from many souces. I find it useful to put all this information into this website so its easy for me to retrieve when I need it. I have tried most of the processes over the years.
