“My work is influenced by the idea of pausing to be present in moments of nature and finding joy in everyday life.

Living in London, I have sought time with nature more and more and have cherished even small moments.

This notion of being present translates itself in the studio as I get into a state of flow and become totally present in creating painterly marks and colour-filled pieces." See less
