About the Artist

My drawings concern power and force, capturing strength as well as beauty of the human form. Close interaction of figures creates a powerful intimacy and tension.
My starting points vary. Sometimes it will be the sculptural forms created by bone, muscle and sinew other times the raw energy and power of movement are my starting point and the marks I put down on paper echo the force of the opposing players or the intimacy of dance or combat.. The medium of Graphite allows fluid and dynamic strokes whilst allowing me to create an almost physical quality in the definition of the figures. Within my ink and colour work I will often try to capture the speed of the action though the fluidity of the medium.
