I’m an artist making original paintings inspired by the forests, landscapes, and wildlife surrounding my home and studio in the depths of the English countryside. I work with a carefully chosen colour palette of soft, muted, and earthy colours, giving the paintings a calm and sometimes dreamlike feeling. My compositions blend observation with imagination and are strongly influenced by folk art and book illustration.
I work mostly in watercolour, gouache, or acrylic and enjoy adding texture, pattern, and delicate details to each piece. You’ll notice that I often include a small house or two nestled within my landscapes; these represent home, a place of comfort and safety.
Since the autumn of 2024, I’ve been experimenting with needlework, translating the style and motifs in my original artwork to stitched pieces. You can find just a few examples of my needlework on the website at the moment. I’ll be adding more soon!
Earlier in my career, I illustrated book covers and magazine articles and worked on many commercial illustration projects. My original paintings were also exhibited in numerous galleries, both in the UK and overseas. I now concentrate entirely on my personal work, selling paintings and prints directly to collectors exclusively through my shop. I regularly launch new collections, so please join the mailing list to receive a notification when this happens.
If you’d like to discover more about my art practice, I share an in-depth look at my process, the materials I use, and my inspirations on the membership platform Patreon. My Patreon community ranges from collectors of my work and people who enjoy art as a hobby to professional artists and illustrators. Elsewhere, you can also find me on YouTube, Instagram, and Substack.
I’m also a brand ambassador for Etchr and Deep Deep Light.
