I am an artist who paints urban landscapes. My work focuses on depicting urban scenes and industrial structures, sites that are tucked away or hidden from us or places we pass every day but fail to notice or choose to ignore. I continue to explore our external urban environment and our internal industrial work environment.

I like to find the locations we would rather ignore and presents them in a new light. I enjoy the challenge of making something visually appealing and exciting from the industrial and bland areas of a city. Redundant concrete works, Broadmoor hospital, Bullingdon Prison and our industrial workplaces. Whether we like it or not, these wastelands, concrete structures and institutions are as much a part of our environment as anywhere else.

Bold shapes, colours and line appeal to me, and my paintings extract a sense of order from a complex scene. I balance colour and form and I use a limited palette to enable me to concentrate on expressive mark making.

My work is held in both private and public collections in the UK and abroad. I have been commissioned to paint for numerous industries including Greatmoor Energy from Waste and Jaguar Land Rover and public body HMP Bullingdon. I also run projects in UK prisons which enable prisoners to express themselves through art.

I am the founder and chair of the charity Time for Art, a charity dedicated to providing creative opportunities to improve mental well-being.

I am very excited to be showing some of my car plant paintings at Darl-e and the Bear art gallery in Woodstock during the Oxfordshire Artweeks festival.
