I've made it this far, don't disappoint me

About Me


Artist & Gallery Assistant/Technician. Recently moved to Nottingham from the almighty Reading.
I was short-listed for the Celeste Art Prize 2007 and the Bloomberg New Contemporaries Prize in 2002/3, my first solo show was in 2004, and have had major album/single commissions since then also (THE COOPER TEMPLE CLAUSE - Kick up the Fire).

I will tell you all when I get my act together and sort a website out (which may be a looong time), buts thats a pathetic excuse as I also do freelance graphics/websites.
I am also just trying to be good. I am nice really (my Mom says so) and I like kittens. Please don't use any of my images without permission. Thanks.

My Interests

Growing beards, unsuccessfully. Shaving it off, and growing it again.
This is work in progress:
