About Me



See an article about me in MANUFACTURED DESCENT magazine.

My interest in comics, music and movie culture has inspired my work.Some of the paintings include collage, which creates a subtle fanzine (from the punk era) style, with ripped up old magazine features and photographs underneath the paintings.

My paintings are detailed and accurate, and often brightly coloured, taking inspiration from Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns and Litchenstein, among others.
