Born in Suffolk in 1969  I am a largely self-taught artist and have been fortunate enough to be in, around and absorbed by art all my life. My pictures carry compositions that work on the balance of form and shape, with their association alongside colour, tone and grey scale.  

Working in gouache, ink and pencil, largely on paper, my work is trying to be sincerely abstract,  but frequently a deconstruction of still-lifes, or everyday objects broken down to line and form against the relationship of colour.  

Inspired by many art styles, from modern British, Constructivism and the Vorticists movements, the flow of images and angles from the Machine Age to the Russian Supremacists,  I find great inspiration in many styles and movements of 20th Century art.
