As a full-time artist I paint abstract figurative paintings. I work predominantly in oil and I build layers of a variety of mixed media including collages, dry pastels, charcoal, water colours, ink drawings and ad hoc memorabilia.

Even though I have been influenced by the Virginia Woolf books, my work does not commit to any preconceived ideas. They are free flowing, must feel bright and colourful filled with objects and scenes. It is important for me to connect factual and fictional female characters as a central plot line.

Saying that, my art has been inspired by the works of artists such as Hibiki Miyazaki, Pooneh Oshidari, Carybé, Casey Joseph McGlynn and Dame Paula Rego, DBE. I continue to embrace different cultures and other art forms including the graphic art medium of engravings, wood block prints, and etchings as well as holding artist book workshops.
