Contemporary figurative artist living in London, UK. I work in high key colours that can be converse, almost jarring; the use of colour is intrinsic to my work, I rarely use black in my painting and use the negative space of the canvas only to enhance a finished image.

My Figurative style is free flowing inspired by works by artists such as Gernot Kissel, Basquiat, Adam Neate and others. My works are drawn from a sense of the human condition and can take on a chaotic, erratic nature. The figures I paint are bold and provocative, arresting with sublime titles, exploring the allure of the form with vibrancy and stark lines.

Each work describes varying emotions; innocence, modesty, confidence or audacity through a process of neo-expressionism.
