Dark, both in theme and style, these almost monochromatic pictures capture a feeling of isolation and melancholy.
Thematically, they often focus on industrial and urban landscapes, docks, or lonely and deserted shores.
Striking images, inspired by Art Deco style paintings and posters, using uncomplicated and positive themes to create a vision of a calm, peaceful, and almost inhumanly perfect world.
Favourite subjects are tropical or idealised coastal landscapes.
Painted with acryllics, ink and other media, the translucent water-colour effect creates an ethereal atmosphere, giving the subject matter a compelling multi-layered depth and mystery.
Inspired by the fragility of life and inevitability of change, exploring the beauty of organic forms and natural forces, both large and small, through growth and decay.
