The foundation of my current body of work lies in the Japanese aesthetic of Wabi-Sabi: exploring the beauty found within transience.

From finding a rotting garment by a stream to a stream of consciousness, my current collection travels through ethereal, abstract landscape style paintings into figurative ink drawings that investigate the subconscious.

The Black Swan Gallery,

Working with inks and water washes I am pursuing the organic fluidity of a natural process where the ink finds a path of it’s own before being diluted and seeping through into the rest of the canvas.

My work is extremely cathartic. I spend hours slowly manipulating the ink to find the right composition and sometimes when its dry writing streams of consciousness on top of the work. The writing for me is an important element, as a dyslexic it can at times be a huge struggle, but at other times the thoughts flow and the time flies.

My work therefore is about time and energy and expresses and exposes me as a person.
