ABOUT THE ARTISTFrom paintings of the English coast, to Lake Michigan in Chicago, to Venice, my paintings transform actual places into simplified visions of the very element that defines them water. Abstractions of weather and season at the sea, the paintings are all about spaces of line, colour and light rather than direct landscape. A fascination with light and shadow, reflection and refraction, pattern and water movement drives my experiments with paint to capture changing luminous qualities.
I was born in 1970 in Chicago, USA and immigrated to the UK in my early 20s. I started painting after moving from Scotland down to London, studying painting and printmaking privately with an artist in Greenwich, London. Despite identifying very much as a British artist it's been said my paintings recall a certain "midwestern" eye for the landscape, inferring flat perspective and vast open spaces.
The paintings have been shown at galleries across the country and are collected internationally. (My first painting sold to Dubai was shipped in October!) Past exhibitions have included the Pastel Society, Royal Society of Marine Artists, the National Maritime Museum, Dulwich Picture Gallery and the Gallery on Cork Street. My travel and scientific interests have led to an artist residency on the Newfoundland coast, a project at the National Maritime Museum using their historic Camera Obscura, and current studies with the Open University about the British coastline geology. In addition to art, and influencing it, I has academic qualifications in biology, physics, design and literature.
I am a listed artist in the UK on the AXIS database of professional artists (www.axisweb.org.uk), and a member of DACS.
