I studied graphic design in London before embarking on an award-winning 25 year career as a creative director in advertising. In 2019 we moved to The Bay Area which reawakened my love for making art. Captivated by the effervescent light and abundant retro Americana, I began to feverishly paint, and two years into Californian life, I quit my job to passionately follow my calling as an artist.

Drawing on my background as a creative director, I compose strong and graphic work, often using large amounts of negative space to offset the subject matter, with ideas and visual narratives integral to the craft.

I’m super selective over my materials which include handmade Masterpiece canvases and Michael Harding handmade oil paints, that give my paintings a sumptuous finish and come to life in ambient or gallery lighting. 

Above all else, it is the California color palette that occupies the biggest space in my mind. The “Pantone Paintings” lean into my career as an art director, and concisely distil a precise moment and place in time to just a few emotive colors. 

Making my solo debut in September 2024 at Gallery LUNA RIENNE in the Mission District, San Francisco, my work sells to collectors in California, The East Coast, The Midwest and my native London.

Knowing where my work ends up is important to me, which is why I go out of my way to make connections with my collectors. And every painting I sell comes with an embossed provenance letter for authenticity.
