ARTWORK, PAINTINGS & ILLUSTRATIONS

 
 

I’m currently living in Tring, Hertfordshire. I grew up in Wembley, north west London, I left school at fifteen to work in a commercial art studio: around the same time I started playing drums in a band and had also become quite obsessed with the thrill of skateboarding, all of which I still enjoy doing to this day. I have produced various types of artwork over the years: including shop signs, skateboard graphics, cartoons for magazines, illustrations for children’s books and even the odd tattoo design.

My latest paintings were inspired by a recent trip to Sri Lanka; I loved the amount of vibrant colours all used within one piece of artwork, I thought I would like to try and incorporate this into the ideas that I had been drawing and sketching.

I like to use quite symmetrical images but ,by using so many different coloured dots, shapes and squiggles to build up the shades and tones, I’d like to think it gives them quite a loose and almost chaotic feel.

Thanks for visiting my website, I hope you enjoy having a look at the paintings.
