Hi I’m an artist based in East Anglia. My work consists of a mixture of painting and 3D work all inspired by the nearby coast. I find much inspiration in the Zen aesthetic of Wabi Sabi; the constantly changing landscape and the decaying impermanence of objects. I look for the beauty in peeling paint and rusty metal. Many different media are used in my paintings. Layers are built upon layers, using tissue, newsprint, ink, paint and pencil, all adding depth to the piece. Words and calligraphy also play an important role, developing a diary as I work. I hold painting workshops,Expressive painting and Mixed media,come along and unlock the hidden creative!
