Textured oil on canvas paintings as well as limited edition prints.

Artistic background

I currently own a gallery in Angmering West Sussex which is an extension of my studio. Here I run workshops and train professional artists in oils. I’ve just opened my second gallery in Watamu in Kenya which is very exciting.

My background is English, Kenyan, Norwegian. I studied art at school, college & then an art & design degree at Lincoln University. I later acquired my PGCE in art, design & media at Brighton University to inspire other artists.

The desire to become a full time professional artist was more recent & personal. I wanted to create my own brand of hand made textured art that also incorporated older painting techniques. My concept is ‘Sense of Place’. I take places I’ve been, people I’ve met, books I’ve read & create modern art with a vintage edge.

I work in oils using brush & palette knives. Influenced by Turners underpainting technique to create illuminating light from within the painting, then fuse it with a textured base for a contemporary twist. The works on here have been featured in House & garden & have been exhibited at Goodwood, Kensington Art Fair & Art Basel in San Fransisco.


Quote

Textured oil paintings just make you feel really good, I can’t explain it. Most of my collector’s have said it’s because it’s so touchable, others even want to eat it, smell it, own it. The art just seems to trigger all the senses.

Interests

I love all kinds of art and enjoy live music. Travelling and exploring new cultures and places has always been important to me. Swimming, reading old adventure books, pottery & tennis are also up there as my favourite things to do when I’m not it the studio.
