Artwork description:

Limited Edition Giclée Print of an abstract artwork based on Beetham Tower, Manchester.

My aim is to express the inherent beauty of architectural structures in bold, graphic statements.

With a passionate interest in the built environment, I take inspiration from the amazing ingenuity that is often involved in the creation of these structures.

As we go about our daily lives, it is easy to begin to take these treasures for granted. My artwork prompts a pause for reflection, considering how lucky we are to be surrounded by such beauty.

The method I use involves the creation of vector-based images that combine the precision of technical illustration, the form and depth of architectural visualisation and the emotional expression of photographic images.

I seek to capture the essence of the buildings, through varying degrees of abstraction, whilst retaining their defining characteristics.

The geometry of the buildings is described in as few lines as possible, using vivid colouring and subtle gradients to accentuate the forms and their response to light.
