Having graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 2001 I travelled widely including Greece, Thailand and a year in Australia, before settling in Cambridge.

Travel is often the starting point for my paintings, the heightened sense of alertness when moving from place to place lends itself to gathering images; mental and photographic. Collecting lived experience.

It all stems from a lifetime of visual enthusiasm and a joy at finding the significant in the ordinary.

The paintings almost always go through several incarnations before appearing ‘complete’ and the hope is that by the end the work still retains some sense of the authenticity of what I started off with.
