My approach
Taking to water based mediums, I received a distinction from Central Saint Martins, where my interests lead me to study the philosophy of Japanese flower arranging and the aesthetics and cultural significance of the Tea Ceremony.
Though perhaps not directly expressed, today the scope of my interests include the psychology of colour, emotional and psycho-geographical landscapes including mind states, dream parenthesis, and intersections and relationships between sound, colour, and language.
In my painting, I take a soft, playful, and tranquil approach that speaks to evoke meaningful and delicate moments through an abstract modesty celebrating the natural world, and within that, beauty in simplicity.
My poetry melds languages and holds space for those who have touched me, in the depths and breadth, syntax if you will, of the human condition.
When it comes to photography, I am drawn to the textures and of course colour pallets of the English countryside, places and spaces that are the backdrop of the richness of everyday life, and quiet beauty in the nuanced moments that are easy to overlook if we don’t take time to slow down and appreciate subtle or unconventional beauty.
I enjoy travelling for photographic pursuits, including recently capturing the Fuerteventuran street’s silence in the heat, and magnificently dramatic weather that shrouds Tenerife’s rolling aspects.
