Original artwork description:

All it took was a little over 8 minutes to set the record price for a toilet roll sold at auction selling for $106.5 million dollars, the previous price was $1.50 but now in rare supply with shelves in supermarkets empty of our beloved Loo roll.

As a coincidence, it sold for the same price as Pablo Picasso's Nude, Green Leaves and Bust, a painting created in the span of a single day in 1932, and sold at auction on the 4th May 2010.

My paintings hang in private and public collection round the world. Including some iconic places like; Amsterdam, Bangkok, Berlin, Chicago, Copenhagen, Dubai, Frankfurt, Geneva, Hamburg, Hong Kong, London, Munich, Monte Carlo, Malibu Beach, Monaco, New York, Nice, Paris, Rome, Sydney, Shanghai, Zurich & Taiwan.

With influences from Lowry to Botticelli I love painting people, but I do not want to paint just portraits, I want my people to have a bit of character, a little of the night about them, coming from my dreams my imagination.

I am an accomplished fine portrait artist, but my real passion is in colour and how the arrangement of colour can produce a different emotional experience of art. I want original and striking paintings which draw the viewer in, which makes them stop…to then see more than the initial work form and colour.

I have always been fascinated by artists who pushed the boundaries, who experimented who changed the art world, my art explores many styles, from Modernism through Impressionism, Expressionism and Cubism.

My painting make a statement, I want them to be timeless, exquisite, of indeterminate origin, the tone beautifully considered with an atmosphere of wonder and intrigue, giving an emotional as well as a visual connection, to look stunning hanging on a wall providing enjoyment for many years to come.

COMMISSIONS:  I would be delighted to create you a unique work, whatever size you need or colour palette.
