Biography
I am inspired by the expressionist spirit of northern Europe particularly painters like Emil Nolde, Vincent Van Gogh, Chaim Soutine and Egon Schiele. I love the directness of these artist's work and their ability to capture the vulnerability of their subjects. When I'm painting people I like having a time limit to capture something of the relationship between painter and sitter.
I am influenced by the energy of American artists including Willem De Kooning and Alice Neel. I love De Kooning’s energetic, gestural brush strokes and Neel’s distinctive approach to portraiture.
