My work explores colour and the ability to provoke emotion and atmosphere through predominantly vibrant and prismatic acrylic paintings. I’m interested in contrasting colour relationships and the subject matter of place to transport the viewers into my artwork and make them feel like they have stepped into the painting.

My practice revolves around using detail, composition and perspective to bring beauty to even the most mundane destinations. I am motivated by the possibility of sharing new and almost abstract ways of seeing, recreating scenes that you may once have overlooked into colourful and captivating attractions. I am fascinated with

how we both individually and collectively associate certain colours and places with certain thoughts and feelings, blurring the boundaries between the real and the imagined. I intend to expand and develop my understanding of colour to explore these themes in my work further.
