Profile

 

Experienced, Leicester based, fine artist, specialising in acrylic painting, pencil and graphite drawing.  A range of styles are conveyed, including, abstract, representational, imaginative, illustrative, and combined approaches to subject matter.

 

Being passionate about my abstract painting work, the intentions are, to embrace in my fine artwork paintings, visual aspects, including colour concepts, abstract interpretation, compositional fluency and atmospheric connotation though the use of artistic techniques and paint mediums.

 

Activities include, taking part in exhibitions, attending sketching events, artist submissions, and stall holding. As well as Fine Art, I create greetings card designs, which I sell along with my canvas artwork. 

 

The artwork is inspired by elements of nature, natural artifacts, wildlife and Modern Art perspectives.
