About me

Me, looking at one of my paintings in Newlyn

I'm an artist and photographer based in the Brecon Beacons

 

Creativity has always been central to my life—I got my first SLR camera at 14 and have been captivated by image-making ever since.

 

In 2006, I studied photography at the London College of the Arts and also explored printmaking in my spare time. But it wasn’t until 2018, when I took an evening class in figurative oil painting, that I truly discovered my favourite medium - oil. I then explored what was available if you wanted to start doing more experimental types of work in paint and print, and found the St Ives School of Painting. 

I joined the Porthmeor Artist Development Programme at the St Ives School of Painting in 2024 and, in 2025, I joined the Professional Landscape Development Programme at Newlyn School of Art in Penzance.

 

My work focuses on expressing and connecting with the mystery of landscape through fluid colour and loose form.
