I’ve been painting for ten years now. Oil’s my main thing, but drawing has always mattered just as much to me, maybe more.
A lot of my early training was classical, copying plates from Bargue’s drawing course. I still go back to it. It’s old school, but it’s the reason I can look at a face and see the structure underneath it.
More recently I’ve been experimenting with alla prima for commissions specifically, painting wet-on-wet in a single sitting rather than building up in layers. There’s an immediacy to it that a slower, layered painting doesn’t have.
I moved to London two years ago and have been working from Marylebone since, splitting time between commissions and my own surrealist paintings.
A few of my paintings have been submitted to The Marylebone Gallery, where they’re currently being exhibited.
