Biography
I create art to communicate my experiences. Drawing is at the core of my practice. I use it as a tool to capture moments through colour, form and texture. I draw with collage. I paint from drawings. In my art I hope to communicate the materiality of things and my enjoyment in them. Torn isolated shapes and their edges play an important role in my paintings, they create a collage like aesthetic. My work is honest and creates a joy in ordinariness. I am interested in the process of abstraction. The abstract represents my experience.
