Having studied Illustration at university, the visual arts and creativity have always been an important part of my life. Sometimes it feels like a parallel track to my interest in nature and other times it feels inseparable, woven into how I see and process things. This is a selection of paintings and drawings from over the years. There’s nothing very linear about my artistic endavours, but broadly speaking it used to be very figurative whereas I now feel drawn to be more abstract. There are hints of this below but it’s all a work in progress. Some of my paintings have been exhibited in the Brighton Open Houses, the Brighton Arts Fair and the Mad Hatter cafe. Oil and acrylic. Some for sale, some not!
