I am a painter working in Amble, Northumberland. I graduated from Northumbria University in Summer 2022 with a First Class degree in Fine Art and have since begun to pursue my work full-time.
I exhibit work regularly in a number of galleries in the region and across the country. Alongside this I have begun to develop contemporary arts-projects in Amble, working to bring exhibitions to the area.
My fascination with painting is primarily the challenge of realising three-dimensional space on the flat surface of the canvas. I am mostly interested in landscape painting as a means of exploring this set of relations, in particular with the contrast between the pastoral and industrial landscape of the Northumberland coast.
