born: london 1964
I used to love to draw as a child, but became strongly discouraged by listening to others' opinions. After a very long but exciting term at secondary school I worked originally as a civil-engineer apprentice and then as a civil-servant, afterwards as an IBM mainframe computer-programmer, then became an aerobics, gym instructor and personal trainer before travelling to the US where I began as a manager of a men's clothing store who then found work as a self-defense instructor shortly before going to art school (where, by the way I lost all self-confidence) and simultaneously being employed in the reservations department of a large hotel prior to enjoying a short stint in hotel marketing moving on and finding great reward and satisfaction as a massage therapist, I then relaxed a bit, moved to Denmark and was able to finally concentrate more on making art even though working full time in various jobs (dishwasher - that sucked, emptying cargo trucks and refilling cargo trucks - that really really sucked and then as a caretaker in a huge council estate - that also sucked but at the same time seemed like a really good laugh). Now, thankfully I have found more time to devote to painting.

| 关于此艺术家 |
Since moving away from Denmark to the south of France in 2005 I have continued painting in chiascurro and more regularly with a broader range of colours. Returning to painting in chiascurro has helped me identify the issues of paint handling and simplifies the process of painting, using colours is technically more challenging as I paint alla prima (wet on wet painting)and mix the colours as I put them on canvas. My current inspirations come from the people that I see every day and the way that they unconciously hold their bodies whilst doing the most mundane things. |
