Currently living and working in London, UK.

 Statement

With a background in art history, I paint primarily in oils, working within realism not to replicate the world, but to understand our connection to its intricate rhythms. My practice is informed by literature and visual culture, and begins with observation: how people move through space, how light falls, how connections form between things, how memory changes a moment depending on the one who recollects. Through painterly realism, I aim to explore our relationship to the land and to one another, and the care and attentiveness required if we are to preserve both.

Raised spending time in the countryside of Kent, the wild landscapes of North Wales, and later the urban coast and cities of the North West, I developed an early sensitivity to the natural world and to how we inhabit it physically, emotionally, and culturally- observing how rural and city rhythms shape our inner lives and sense of belonging.

My work is rooted in close observation of light, gesture, and movement, seeking to capture fleeting moments that might otherwise pass unnoticed. In a fast-paced world, my paintings invite reflection—an opportunity to attend more carefully to the places and people that sustain us.
