Originally from the United Kingdom, I moved to Hong Kong in January 2015.

Art, in all forms, has always been an important part of my life; initially through dance and theatre, and more recently through writing and painting. Art helps me to express what matters to me most, find balance, and feel connected.

I am a self-taught artist and paint mostly with acrylic on canvas. I love the spontaneity and fluidity of acrylic paint. I use a range of tools to apply it to the canvas, as well as different mediums to alter the way that it mixes and behaves. I find much of my inspiration in nature, particularly the ocean.

The fast-paced world in which we live means that we may see only a fragment of all the things there are to see around us. I am fascinated by what we ‘see’ as being the product of many things unseen. In my paintings, I like to build layers. These layers may comprise similar colours, shades, and techniques, or may be very different to each other. What is ultimately ‘seen’ in finished painting is the product of its individual layers, and changes when viewed from different angles and distances.

I hope that when people view my paintings, they can see beyond the finished piece to the individual layers beneath and that, in so doing, they can feel a deeper connection with the world around them and their place within it.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like any further information about my paintings, or you would like to ask about commissioning a painting.
