Biography
Realism artist. Co-host of the 'Kick in the Creatives' podcast | Speaker at Adobe Max 2021
Far from being the 'tortured' type Artist who wishes to remain mysterious and aloof, like the ones we imagine lunging furiously at their canvasses and wearing over-sized paint covered shirts - the fact is, I am quite ordinary. I could talk about myself as a third party if you like, or even describe myself as an onion with many layers, blah, blah... But the truth is, I am definitely more of a banana than an onion. I tried hard at one stage to become one of those mysterious type Artists that I found so fascinating, but feeling stifled and over-influenced by the modern way of teaching, I abandoned my arts degree and decided that there is only one way to become a real Artist and that is to paint from the heart, the way it comes naturally. So, against most of today's teaching methods, I embraced the traditional way of oil painting. Fell in love with it actually. As much as I admire the wild abandonment of many other Artist's and their more expressionistic styles, I prefer to express myself in a more gentle and methodical way. Only then can I stand back and honestly say that 'I' painted it and what I am looking at is a little piece of 'me'
