ABOUT ME.

I have been a professional chef all my working life. Working as a chef in  busy kitchens, is frantic and some days very stressful, over the years above everything else I have tried, sea fishing, cake decorating and numerous other activites. I found that painting is the best way to unwind and relax. Whilst painting I can escape to a different place and not worry about the day gone by.

MY ETHOS.

I am an emerging artist who is trying to provoke the unconventional and seductive boundaries of my contemporaries  I have been painting for 3 years my mediums are acrylic on wood. Bright colours and bold brush strokes are my signature my mission is to challenge and dare to confront what is estabished as art.

Feel free to look through my portfolio for a sample of my work. If you have any questions, please contact me.
          

MY STYLE.

My work is borne out of my perception of what I see and feel at the time of creating a painting. My prefered style is 'alla prima'also know as direct painting, I prefer this style because I feel I can capture the moment, far better than if I were to spend a long time on each piece. Famous artists who worked in this style include, Paul Cezanne, John Singer Sargent, Mary Cassatt, Winslow Homer, Caravaggio, Hieronymus Bosch, and Frans Hals.
