I have moved around throughout my life and with each move I feel renewed possibility, lit up with anticipation. This energy and accompanying sense of movement feeds my work. Continuing on from a childhood spent immersed in drawing, painting and colouring in I refer back to those pursuits, using a variety of mediums and surfaces to variously explore wanderlust and belonging through the lens of my colour soaked and frequently playful images.​

 

From an Irish German background my early years were spent living across the Middle East and Southern Europe before I moved to London intending to study painting. But side-tracked by a chance encounter I spent a couple of decades or so in the music business as an artist manager before finally picking up my studies and graduating with an MA Fine Art from the Reading School of Art. I now live and work in Edinburgh.
