About Me

I trained at London Fine Art Studios developing a strong foundation in figurative painting and life drawing. I work primarily in oils, with a focus on landscape and still life.

​

My landscapes are painted en plein air,  directly from observation, often beginning with compositional sketches and sometimes photographs. I draw inspiration from the ever changing qualities of light and sky, as well as the subtle rhythms and colour harmonies found in the natural world.

​

Still Life set ups allow me to play with the  composition and draw attention to everyday objects around me. Through thoughtful placement and controlled lighting I enjoy building a dialogue or drama that elevates simple objects to subjects of interest. ​

​

I also undertake commissions including landscapes, personal memories and pet portraits, typically working from photographs. 

​

Based in South West London, with a studio at Wimbledon Art Studios, I have exhibited in group shows at Wimbledon Studios, Leighton House, Kensington, Hurlingham Club, Fulham and at the Prince & Pilgrim Gallery, Kew.
