I'm currently living in Newtown, Sydney, Australia (yes, great coffee and food). I also run a small business as a freelance graphic designer.

My artwork includes sculpture, painting and drawing. A passion for nude figurative imagery forms the core of my work, but I admit to an interest in Medieval plant lore and drawings (thus the mandrake and rose imagery).

I am thoroughly commited to figurative painting, drawing and sculpture. Through intense realism and naturalistic poses I seek to show the inherent grace of our everyday gestures. In my current work, the nude is archetypal and enigmantic. Placed within ambiguous interiors the figures internalise unknown dramas, transcending contexts of time and space.

My paintings, situated in the contemporary, are also deeply informed by the rich tradition of Western academic painting. I combine academic draftsmanship with contemporary technology, manipulating imagery within Photoshop and Illustrator. These images are then transposed onto canvas, Sources for imagery can include vintage photography, photographs of models and friends, life drawing and internet image searches. There is always a point at which the works develop a seperate life - leaving the preparation as a barely noticeable skeleton.

New works: Paintings (with a few sculptures on the way) are generally available for sale.

Portfolio: This section shows an archive/overview of previous work. It's a good place to see the variety of styles and mediums which I've experimented with over the years.
