| I paint
people who don't exist, characters from films that provoke
some emotion in the viewer. Films provide the viewer with
an illusion of reality, an artificial reality where colour
and light conspire to create a perfect thin surface. Working
from photographs taken directly from my television screen
I isolate a single frame and translate this surface perfection
into paint. |

| With an MA in Fine
Art I've exhibited extensively in the West Midlands area
and London. Recent exhibitions include New Art Birmingham,
18th Storey - The Haddon Tower Project, and Choca-block
at the Coningsby Gallery in London.
I currently produce one-off paintings
and commissions using various media on canvas and aluminium.
