How to start a new blog? Well, since I'm here to showcase my work, here's a new painting I'm working on along with some sketchbook work.
Anyone familiar with my work will know I have a penchant for the female face and these pieces follow this theme. Currently I'm particularly keen on exploring the relationship between strength and femininity without compromise.
My work has developed dramatically over the last year as has my confidence as an artist after a short spell at Hastings College where I'd started a contemporary fine art foundation degree. Life circumstances meant I had to leave the course early on but the term I spent there was eye opening, thought provoking and taught me an invaluable amount.
These sketches and paintings are produced using acrylic, oils and collaged using various papers. "Boudica" (above) measures 60 x 90cm.
