I Create Gothic and Psychedelic Inspired Original British Made Oil and Textile Paintings On Canvas and Board

A bit about me...

Originally from West Yorkshire, I have exhibited my art work nationally and I sell my art work both nationally and internationally. I work from my studio in Essex where I spend the majority of my time painting and planning my next works. Along with producing one off original pieces of various different sized and mediums, I have also done some large mural commissions.

I studied Painting and Drawing at Huddersfield University, graduated in 2006 with a BA Hons in Fine Art Painting and Drawing. I won an award for highest marks in my first year of this course and I have worked as a professional artist ever since.

I also studied textiles at Bradford College during my art foundation course where I was awarded a merit for high achievement and I feel this now feeds back into my work when I make my textile and mixed media art works.

I am inspired by decaying nature, bright colours and all things to do with the Gothic subculture. I like to combine my favourite inspirations in an overall New Gothic expressionistic art style, so much of my work has Gothic symbolism or motifs such as skulls and skeletal shapes with bright contrasting colours. I like the contrast between these two opposing styles.

I am particularly interested in natural forms and textures and the feelings they can evoke when used within contemporary art work. I like to imitate or embody these specific interests within my art works and I often to this within imaginary forest landscapes that I create.

I also make finely detailed purely abstract paintings that are inspired by human anatomy, skeletal shapes,abstract expressionism and experimentation.
