I tAKE pHOTOGRAPHS. I dRAW I mAKE pAINTINGS
My work is influenced by my walks and impressions mostly on the walls and urban areas around London
I see along many of Londons Urban walkways roughly hewn on first glance, but it is a human obsession to leave marks. as I walk around the city absorbing it nuances my work becomes a memory document, as I walk i take photographs it helps me to remember that walk and then to begin retranslating that experience into drawings marks lines and textures that are unique, and found mostly on walls I look for spaces, colours, tones, lines that all help become a part of a planned new painting, so as documenter of life this gets imbedded into my work
Waterloo Lines.
