About me

With my work focused on the idea of embracing change; I am inspired by pareidolia, folklore, myths and legends, transformation, aboriginal cultures and Quixotism, ephemeral visual misunderstanding, ocular strangeness, nightmares, dreams and fleeting glimpses of unreality.
I work in traditional mediums such as pencil and ink, on my own home-made marbled papers to create art using the hands on techniques of drawing, ink and paint washes to further make images with intricate detail and narrative to pick out details that promote the telling of the tale through images filled with narrative, allure and creatures from around the allegorical world, all in the recognisable style of my own.

I work mainly within the realm of short fiction stories both for print and online publications. With an illustrative mind and experience in many aspects of artwork, my passion is for imagery that accompanies literature based in the surreal, Gothic and fairy tales; I have also exhibited work internationally recently winner of 'Best in British Product Design' in the Brit List 2021 awards for 'Metamorphosis' - the fabric I designed for and in collaboration with, The Monkey Puzzle Tree wallcoverings and fabrics.
