“I have always loved the sense of escapism that comes with creating artwork. I am passionate about exploring my creativity, constantly looking at developing my techniques so I can keep that feeling of energy within my work. When someone is emotionally moved by looking at my artwork that is a big motivation for me as I have always liked to please people through my painting.

My preferred medium is oil paint, I do sometimes create an acrylic underpainting first as I really like the way the oil paint behaves when applied over acrylic. I often dilute the oil paint down with turpentine in the initial stages and use it like watercolour.

My Figurative painting is all about depicting the mood and intimacy within a moment, using a loose approach to my brushwork, trying to be spontaneous while carefully considering placement of strong contrasting values to create depth.

I have spent thousands of hours drawing figures from life, this has been fundamental to the development of my figurative painting style – mainly because I get to observe directly the little details in body language that can suggest all manner of narrative, my favourite one is that everyone deserves to feel loved. I also teach figure drawing and painting which means I am constantly examining, tweaking and improving the process.

My main inspiration comes from being outside, studying people, oceans, landscapes and skies in all weather conditions. I feel I have succeeded when I can look at my finished painting and recall accurately how I felt during the process of painting, a little like re reading a diary.

One of my latest projects is about depicting skies and landscapes at altitude, I have a lot of fun exploring the skies in my para-motor, flying above, around and sometimes inside the clouds, the atmosphere and light at several thousand feet can be extremely fascinating and a real challenge to depict with a paint brush.”

HOW WILL I RECEIVE MY WORK?

When it comes to delivery, we take great care in ensuring the safety of your artwork. We begin by carefully wrapping all work with cardboard corners and bubble wrap, providing an extra layer of protection. For larger pieces, we go even further by utilising recycled foam edges and a felt cover that offers complete protection to the frame. This is especially useful if you are planning to move or store your art for an extended period of time.

To guarantee the secure transfer of your artwork for national and international orders, we use a strong board that completely covers your art. This extra precaution ensures the safety of your artwork when handled by courier services. For overseas deliveries, we offer the option of building custom crates specifically tailored to your artwork’s dimensions. If you are interested in this service, we would be happy to provide you with a cost estimate.

HOW DO I LOOK AFTER MY FRAMED ART?

Ensuring the longevity of your picture framing for decades involves simple maintenance steps. To maintain the quality of your picture, it is vital to have proper air circulation behind it. You will notice felt “bumpers” on the back of your picture, which allow for this necessary airflow. Please ensure that these bumpers are in place. If they happen to disappear, kindly contact us, and we will promptly send you replacements.

When it comes to cleaning, we typically use art glass for your framing. To clean the glass effectively, use an anti-static cloth. Apply a small amount of window cleaner to the cloth (avoid excessive saturation), and gently wipe the glass in circular motions. Taking these precautions will prevent smearing and prolonged cleaning time. If you require an anti-static cloth, we can provide one made from the same material used in glasses cleaning.

In the case of conservation framing, we insert a vent on the back of your picture to promote air circulation. It is crucial not to cover this vent, as the picture needs to breathe. If your artwork is a canvas, a clean, soft gloss paintbrush will effectively remove any dust accumulated. By following these maintenance practices, your picture will last for decades, if not longer.

Consider the environment in which you display your artwork. Moist environments, such as bathrooms, may not be suitable for paper prints. However, we can assist by sealing or dry mounting and vacuum pressing to prevent warping. If you require more detailed advice, please feel free to contact us, and we will be happy to assist you.
