Born 1975, In Buckinghamshire, just on the outskirts of London.
I now spend my days in the studio, creating semi abstract seascapes and landscapes. When I get the chance, I venture into the lakes, mountains, and coastlines of the North West of England. Scotland is also a great inspiration and luckily, is not too far from me now.
After graduating in 2001 and gaining a BA Honours in Fine Art Painting, I fell into Graphic Design and worked mostly for the finance sector in the City of London – St. Paul’s and Moorgate. After years of creating at a desk and in front of a computer I wanted to head back to the painting studio and found the perfect one, tacked to the side of an old steam museum, in Kew Bridge. It was a great place to rediscover my love of painting – a more tactile way of creating. After a few successful exhibitions and involvement with some great galleries, I became a professional Fine Artist. I original worked on portrait paintings and still create a few every year. It took a couple of years before I started to experiment with trying to capture the sense of place and produce abstract seascapes and landscapes paintings.
After a decade or so painting in London, I was lucky enough to be able to relocate and I now live with my wife and two kids, in Lake District National Park. On some weekends I share my studio with my nine-year-old daughter and five-year-old son, who one day might follow in the footsteps of their dad and also become artists.I now spend my days in the studio, creating semi abstract seascapes and landscapes.
