Abstract paintings are a way for me to explore the depths of my subconscious mind.

After many years of honing my craft, I bring my experiences of music, travel and subcultures to life on canvases covered in colour and gold leaf. I captivate audiences through a combination of colour and texture as I explore a vibrant landscape, a magical world of vibrant hues and metallic accents. Even though my creative process starts in chaos, it evolves into harmony. Each brushstroke or mark builds on the previous one as I layer colour and texture with precision.

Each mark tells a story. I work with a wide variety of mediums such as acrylic paint, Gels, Oil, Inks, Spray cans, Markers, Alcohol, Wax, latex & Gold leaf on canvas or Board. I use a wide range of painting tools such as brushes, wedges and etching pens or embossing tools and palette knives.

I find art to be very therapeutic and centering on a personal level. I find it to be a valuable source of self-discipline and balance.

Above all, I strive to find something new with each painting I create.
