statement:
|
I am a liverpool based artist and have grown up in Liverpool. I did a Fine Art degree at the University of Central Lancs followed by a PGCE at John Moores and I currently teach art and design in a secondary school on the Wirral. My work is of a very illustrative style. I paint mostly in gouache on board on a small scale. I use a lot of pattern and tiny detail, i like to create images that people can keep looking back to and find something new each time. My work incorporates a lot of natural imagery with a dreamlike quality.  |
