artist’s Statement

The core of my painting practice involves a balance; to create work where the paint is playful on the canvas, as well as discussing ideas. It's this enjoyable challenge which drives my painting.

My work sources influences from Hockney to Guston, investigating things that interest me either visually or conceptually. Favourite themes are empty places that function as a stage on which things might happen. They involve the viewer by letting them impose their own narrative.
